Should any of you seriously wish to learn more about what happened in eastern railroading from the 60's through Y2K - probably the greatest industrial turn around of the 20th century - I would highly recommend the book "The Men Who Loved Trains" by Rush Loving. It's an easy read that includes greed, intrigue and lust for power (the truth is always more interesting than fiction!). One caution though... it will challenge just about all the "facts" commonly held and repeated ad nauseum on the Internet about RR's as a business.
