This page is being updated to organize the digitization of ICC documents related to railroads. The 1915-1920 ICC valuation of common carrier railroads and subsequent revisions documenting changes is the primary focus of the digitiation projects I am involved in. A majority of the digitized files will be available from historical societies rather than directly on this website. Additional support provided by a R&LHS Research Fellowship. As time permits, files shared on this website in the djvu format will be converted to pdf or jpg formats.
