Young revealed plans for a coast-to-coast railroad involving 10 leading carriers with total assets of $6 billion.

Mr. Young has withdrawn his roads from the Association of American Railroads, and has promised to announce next month a new association built around his holdings which would work to throw off “banker-government domination” of railroads.
