Acknowledgements and disclaimer: The compilation of the lists used
on this site include many date and cross references to aid the
understanding of the context of each timetable. The lists attempt to
reflect names changes from the perspective of timetable publication,
which is not always the same as corporate sturcture. Railways often
continued the use of a former corporate title as a "DBA" after a change
in legal structure. The control of one railway by another was sometimes
very public, sometimes very discreet. Control itself could be exercised
many ways, through ownership, joint ownership by a "paper" parent,
operating lease, stock majority, and so forth. For example, the Alabama
Great Southern never issued its own public timetables after the 1880s,
even though the corporation may still exist as an obscure tax entity of
the Norfolk Southern. The Wabash was controlled for many
years by the Pennsylvania with no publicized relationship.
