[edit] Philadelphia and Baltimore Central RR

I've seen the name "Philadelphia and Baltimore Central Railroad" on various maps and documents[1] referring to this railroad line, and was wondering what the relationship was between the two companies. Is it the same company before and after a reorganization, or a successor company? I'd like to track the full corporate lineage of this line, if possible. —CComMack (tc) 17:11, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

The ICC valuation report should have what you want. --NE2 09:17, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Thank you! That's exactly what I was looking for. —CComMack (tc) 10:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
You might also want to use the Railroad History Database to get information, though I don't think it counts as a reliable source. --NE2 11:43, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
