I'm talking about nationalization during WW1. Conrail didn't nationalize all the railroads (which did happen during WW1), just the bankrupt Penn Central.

    Yeah. The Wikipedia page isn't all that great on this topic; I'm going off of my recollections from the book American Railroads, although it's been a few decades since I last read it.

      If you know of any material that's available on the internet I would be glad to read it

        I apologize, because I don't know of any off the top of my head.
