"The Fight for Conrail", page 30 of the July 2006 issue by Rush Loving Jr. was adapted from "The Men Who Love Trains".

For a really good telling of the story try and find a copy of Rush Loving's "The Men Who Loved Trains."

The breakup of Conrail between NS and CSX

ALL:

I remember a "Trains" article about the breakup of Conrail between NS and CSX, but cannot find it in the 1940-2010 DVD. Can anyone help me?
