Nearly all of the major Class One roads ran narrow gauge lines. Even the mighty Pennsylvania and Union Pacific had n.g. lines. Safe to say, though, the Class Ones ran their narrow gauge lines, well, like narrow gauge lines! That means, ancient engines and cars, decrepit track and structures and zero capital improvement.
So which major Class Ones DIDN'T own a narrow gauge line?
My list...Northern Pacific, Great Northern Western Pacific and New York Central. Feel free to make additions or subtractions.
