User:SPUI/Amtrak lines acquired from Conrail

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is loosely transcribed from the 1975 Conrail Final System Plan, a U.S. Government publication with no copyright notice. Note that these were all options for purchase - Amtrak and the states could turn them down. Everything was acquired at the startup of Amtrak service on April 1, 1976.
