Re: PC: Pennroad

["Bastler" <rkiefer@xxxxxxxx>]

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Pennroad the corporate name of the 
compant that ran the DT&I and some others that were not part of the 
PC merger?   I remember reading some thing like that some where.  As 
I recall these other railroads were in the black financially and were 
not part of the merger as a result... I could be wrong though but I 
will check in to it.

I believe Pennroad was owned by the Pennsy. The NYC didn't have an
ownership hand in the DT&I at all. At one time Wabash (pre-NW) had a stake
in the Ann Arbor, which later came under DT&I control.
