1 Miles operated is in terms of
railroad so that a mile of single track is counted the same as a mile of
double track. Sidings, turnouts, yard
switching mileage, and mileage not operated are excluded. Miles operated under trackage rights
provided by another (owning) railroad are included.
NOTE: For definition of railroad types see previous table.
