Jim, we will give you a second chance to give a little more balanced  view.  
Like how the former Pinnzi (did I spell that right?) CEO structured  the 
management chain of command so that a NYC manager would always report to a  
Pinnzi 
superior.  
 
I think the points you made were pretty accurate based on the report that  
Fortune magazine wrote a few months following the bankruptcy.  I remember  
another one of several crippling points that Fortune made was the financial  
drain 
of the New Haven, which of course Pinnzi Central did not want.  The  New Haven 
passenger losses were so huge but takeover of the New Haven was forced  on 
Pinnzi Central as a condition of approval of the merger.  
 
Of course, the bankruptcy could have been avoided if PC had simply applied  
lightning stripes to all of the motive power.  I think it was Ed Loizeaux  who 
told me that.

comments.  

Yea, but the fun we had.
