Combining John Barry's list and Bruce Smith's
list

==================================================


Many railroads show remarkable declines 1945 to 1951,
and only
THREE

show increases. The Southern Pacific (postwar construction
boom and
high

demand for lumber products) and IC and L&N - perhaps
reflecting
increased

pulpwood for paper production in their territory?


Are these numbers correct? Do the NP numbers include their
large fleet
of

skeleton log flats? Why are some roads not listed in the
1951
totals?
