nanaimo73 asketh: <br /> <br />"Why was the Wabash included in the 1964 merger?" <br /> <br />NKP had the best route east to Buffalo, but the Wabash was best to St. Louis. Plus, the Wabash was the only eastern carrier (that went east of Chicago) that had a line to Kansas City. The two routes complimented each other, and were naturals to go together. Wabash had much more automobile traffic than NKP. <br /> <br />Old Timer <br />
