A report (which is missing pages) by the Interstate Commerce Commission on the advantages, disadvantages, and “evils” of privately owned railroad cars. The report discusses both cars in which goods belonging to the cars’ owners are transported, and ones in which the goods of others are transported. Advantages include the investment of private investors in new technologies, such as refrigerator cars, and the rental of these cars to carriers. Disadvantages include monopolies over refrigerator cars, an unfair advantage for companies who own both the cars and the goods, as well as costs and complications regarding ice. The meatpacking company Armour is particularly singled out for their consolidation over the refrigerator car business.
