freight traffic in revenue tons fell to 140 5 million from 155 5

millions.

4%Revenue ton miles fell to 56 857 millions, due to lower shipments of iron,

ore, taconite pellets and chemicals and aluminium. Grain and coal shipments

increased.

4%Gross ton miles per train hour fell to 78 546.
which was a favourable showing, since
9%—Trailer-on-flat-car traffic increased

the national value fell 6%.

Mam 3%line passenger traffic in 1970 showed a slight fall in passengers, and a

20% fall in passenger-miles. Losses on passenger traffic, despite ICC approval

in 1969 to discontinue several trains, rose $2 million to $40 million in 1970. calculated

on a solely related basis. It was expected these losses would be substantially

reduced when, on I May 1970, the National Railroad Passenger Corporation takes

over operation of intercity passenger service.

Freight traffic levels in 1970 were approximately 7j% less ton-miles than 1969.

Freight rate increases became effective late in 1969 and in 1970 resulted in improved
revenues during the year.

Rapidly rising labor and material costs, however, more than offset the increase
in revenues, with the result that net income did not rise correspondingly.

There was a further reduction in passenger revenues in 1970.

The capacity of the Seattle facility was more than doubled by enlarging the function of maintaining up-to-date records on all freight cars, piggyback trailers and

Yard is conveniently located and one of the most modern freight facilities in the

—Pacific Northwest. Among the yard's new features are two tracks for loading

and unloading trailers one on either side of the I 660-foot concrete strip. They
have a capacity of 36 flat cars and are spaced 90 feet apart to allow working room
for the Piggy Packer, a vehicle for handling containers and trailers. The capacity
of the area set aside for temporary storage has been increased from 45 to 200

trailers and containers.
Expansion work completed at Piggyback Park, the piggyback/container terminal

adjoining Bensenville Yard, near Chicago, included the installation of an additional

track for the loading and unloading of trailers and containers by straddle crane
and the complete renovation of container handling facilities. To keep pace with
the intermodal movement of overseas containers and as a means of serving Mil-
waukee Road customers better, a US Customs clearance facility was built. The
terminal is capable of providing temporary storage for 700 40-foot piggyback

trailers, or an even larger number of containers. A new connecting track between
the piggy back /container area and the main Bensenville Yard facilitates the movement
of trailer and container flatcars from the classification yards to the new unloading

and loading complex.
The Chicago and Seattle facilities are both operated by Milwaukee Motor Trans-

portation Company, a subsidiary of the railroad.

m piggyback and real estate development.

—It waits impatiently for the conclusion of merger negotiations with the Union

Pacific to make it part of a strong diversified transcontinental system. But. due

to lengthy legal and ICC procedures, and interventions, such as that of the CMS&P

A new major railroad Intermodel terminal has been built in Chicago.
The railroad suffered storm damage, and from strikes. Container shipments increased substantially. The movement of 20 foot Inter-pool
Railroad expenses at $268 million were $13 million higher than 1969 and resultant
pre-tax income from transportation was $14 4 million. containers through Gulf ports was encouraged by improved rates and services
from Gulf steamship lines.
TRAFFIC RESULTS
— — 2%Freight traffic tons carried increased
to 83 million tons. But revenue

TOFC'COFC traffic increased 16% and revenue 42%.

Passenger traffic decreased slightly. Suburban lines south of Chicago have been

electrified for many years and most cars are old. Eleven Chicago suburbs formed

the Chicago South Suburban Mass Transit District and qualified for a grant from

the US Department of Transportation of two thirds of the total estimated cost of
the 130 new doubledeck cars with 152 seats now on order. IC will furnish S I 3-4

million balance.

LOCOMOTIVES AND CARS

The IC fleet of locomotives totalled 781 units and comprised 22 passenger units
(EMD E8 and E9 mainly); 570 general purpose units (mainly 16 GE U30B and U33C

and 60 EMD GP 40. 29 GPI8, 13 GP28, 340 GP7 and 9) and 177 switchers.

During 1970 the railroad acquired 20 6P38. 5 SD40A, 5 6P40 units for moving

high-speed long distance freight trains and heavy unit coal trains, and rebuilt 50

others.

Freight cars total 50 000 and I 900 new cars were added in 1970.

DEVELOPMENT

Although now operated as the real estate division of Illinois Central Industries,
much of the real estate development is of properties previously owned by the

Illinois Central Railroad.

Office buildings and high rise residential structures will be built on the Chicago
lake front air rights, where a major oil company plans to erect an international

headquarters office building.

An industrial park will be developed in New Orleans; and a new residential

community in the south suburbs of Chicago.

The " Rent-a-Train " became a reality when the first train was inaugurated
between Gibson City Illinois and Baton Rouge (850 miles); 115 cars hauled by

4-3.000 h.p. diesel locomotive units, carrying 400.000 bushels of Illinois corn.
The shipper rents for a year for a fixed fee (of the order of $1 million per annum)

plus a distance or load charge. A recent addition was a 5 car minitrain for Swift.
A second "Rent-a-Train" has now been inaugurated.

In 1970, IC inaugurated a daily 36 car train hauling liquid sludge fertilizer in
tank cars from Chicago to Areola, III.

The railroad encourage planting of pine trees in the deep south, for pulpwood
and paper mill developments, and acquired and built track to serve this traffic
potential. There were unit train developments, including a train of 100-ton
coal hopper cars running from a mine at Madisonville in West Kentucky to a barge

loading facility on the Tennessee River, at Grand Rivers Kentucky.
Other unit coal trains are planned between mines in Southern Illinois and Steel

plants in Indiana Harbour, and others between mines in Southern Illinois and
Western Kentucky and electric power plants in Wisconsin.

In June 1970. IC and the United Transportation Union signed an agreement

to search jointly for mutually beneficial changes, and new business, under the
title JOBS (Joint Opportunity for Better Service).

Illinois Central "Fastback" (all-piggyback) train arrives
at Chicago from Memphis.

and Eastern Illinois Railroad Company. During 1969 MoPac negotiated a contract
for the sale, to the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, of C and El's line from Evansville
to Chicago as required by I.C.C. which leaves MoPac with the lines from Chicago
to St. Louis and the important by-pass route to the Southwest via Thebes, in
southern Illinois. The MoPac also became joint owner (with the Chicago an I
North Western Railroad) of the Alton and Southern Railway, an important switching
line at the St. Louis Gateway.

The Missouri Pacific System also includes the trucking operations of Missouri
Pacific Truck Lines Inc., and the Texas and Pacific Motor Transport Company.

—All the railways operate as one system with office address: 210 N. 13th Street,

St. Louis, Mo. 63103.

DIVERSIFICATION

In addition to trucking operations MoPac incorporated Missouri Pacific Intermodal
Transport Inc. and filed a tariff with the Federal Maritime Commission and is
serving as a non-vessel operator by water.

A similar application was filed with the Civil Aeronautics Board to operate as

an airfreight forwarder as Missouri Pacific Airfreight Inc.

NORFOLK AND WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY

8 NORTH JEFFERSON STREET, ROANOKE 17,

VIRGINIA 24011

The Norfolk and Western is an amalgamation of the previous Norfolk & Western.
Nickel Plate. Virginian and Wabash Railways, and as such, operates a total of

7 595 miles (12 224 km) of route.

Further substantial mergers had been proposed, with ICC support, to establish

a second large system m the eastern United States, to be competitive with the

Penn Central. It was proposed that the Norfolk & Western merge with the C and

O/B and O. ICC hearings on this began in 1967. continued through 1968 and a

W OB Ofavourable ICC examiners recommendation was given 20 March 1969, but in March
1971, the N and and C and and railways announced that their proposal
—to merge was abandoned due to changed circumstances partly the Penn Central

bankruptcy.

At the direction of ICC. as a condition of approval of the proposed merger,

—they had been required to include five eastern railroads as subsidiaries. These

five were: Erie-Lackawanna; Delaware and Hudson; Boston & Maine; Reading;

and Central of New Jersey.

As steps to consummate this direction, Norfolk and Western, through a sub-

sidiary, Dereco Inc.. acquired the Erie-Lackawanna Railway on I April 1968 and
the Delaware and Hudson Railroad on I July 1968.

An offer to the Boston & Maine has not been accepted.
W — OBThe Reading Railway and the Central of New Jersey would have become sub-
sidiaries of the merged N and C and and O system. But now the merger

is abandoned.

The Norfolk and Western Railway Company statistics now include the income

derived from Dereco Inc., investments, and the operating information for the

EL. D and H and B and M Railroads is given under their separate headings.

While the main activity of the Norfolk and Western Railway is in transportation,

they are active in real estate.

LINES AND TERRITORIES

The Penn Cencral. now the largest railway in USA for traffic, operates almost

22 000 miles (35 400 km) serving 16 states, 2 provinces of Canada and the District
of Columbia, carrying 300 000 passengers a day and operating some 3 000 passenger
and freight trains every 24 hours.

It covers the major industrial and population centres of New York, Philadelphia.

Boston. Washington DC, Detroit. Pittsburgh, Cincinnatti, Chicago and St. Louis.

DEVELOPMENT

Much of Penn Central development work is directed to consolidation of opera-
tions to achieve the economies expected from the merging of the individual lines.

The new electric high-speed passenger service in the North East Corridor
from New York to Washington, jointly sponsored by Penn Central and the United
States Department of Transportation (DOT), known as meirohner, operates 9
trains each way each day—-227 miles in less than 3 hours with 6 intermediate stops.

— —Coal traffic 100 million tons yielding $200 million revenue included 750 unit

trains per month.

Grain movements included unit trains of 100 jumbo cars and also 10 car minitrains.

Automobile rakes handle nearly one-fifth of the nations automobile and truck
production.
