Whence Pevler... and Why?

[NW Mailing List]

A minor point.  Stuart Saunders resigned as N&W president effective September 30, 1963, to become Chairman and CEO of PRR, and Pevler became president of the N&W effective Oct. 1, 1963, but the Wabash did not become part of the N&W until Oct. 16, 1964.

  What is the inside story on the N&W's acquisition of Pevler along with the Wabash Railroad?  Was this Stuart Saunders' way of getting Pevler off the PRR property, disposing of him along with the Wabash?  Anyone know the politics behind the move?
