Excuse me, the ICC had (in many persons's opinions) a stranglehold on rates, routes, and many other details of RR operation including specifically safety. The ICC dates from 1887 IIRC, and was challenged as unconstitutional. ICC was affirmed by SCOTUS. ICC explicitly superseded states in safety regulation. |
