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.
