I'm talking about nationalization during WW1. Conrail didn't nationalize all the railroads (which did happen during WW1), just the bankrupt Penn Central.

This one? Maybe I missed it in my brief skim but I don't see anything negative


Yeah. The Wikipedia page isn't all that great on this topic; I'm going off of my recollections from the book American Railroads, although it's been a few decades since I last read it.


If you know of any material that's available on the internet I would be glad to read it


I apologize, because I don't know of any off the top of my head.
