20 Reading Railroad
Одна из первых железных дорог на Востоке США. Основана в 1833, успешно конкурировала при перевозках антрацита с компанией "Скулкилл навигейшн", перевозившей уголь по каналам. Контролировалась компаниями "Балтимор энд Огайо" [ Baltimore and Ohio Railroad] и "Нью-Йорк сентрал систем" [New York Central System]. Осуществляла главным образом товарные перевозки, а также пассажирские перевозки в пригородной зоне Филадельфии. В 1971 стала частью полугосударственной компании "Конрейл" [ CONRAIL]English-Russian dictionary of regional studies > Reading Railroad
