Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Railroad Rates The railroad problem, with respect to charges, has always been a problem of freight rates rather than of passenger fares. The freight traffic upon the American railroads far exceeds the passenger traffic in volume, complexity, and importance. In order to avoid confusion of statement, this book deals only with freight rates. But the fundamental principles governing rates and fares are the same.
