National City Lines, es una sociedad creada en 1920, se reorganizó en 1936 con el propósito expreso de la adquisición de sistemas de tránsito locales en todo el país. En 1938 el National City Lines obtiene acuerdos de exclusividad y fondos de capital de las compañías que buscan aumentar las ventas de autobuses comerciales y de suministros, incluyendo General Motors, Firestone Tire, Standard Oil de California y Phillips Petroleum, lo que permitió a National City Lines comprar más de 100 sistemas de tranvía eléctrico en 45 ciudades, incluyendo pero no limitado a, Cleveland, Detroit, Los Ángeles, Nueva York, Oakland, Filadelfia, St. Louis, Salt Lake City, y Tulsa. Estos sistemas fueron finalmente desmantelados y reemplazados en lo que fue conocido como el Gran escándalo del tranvía de Estados Unidos. En 1949, las compañías General Motors, Standard Oil de California, los neumáticos de Firestone y otros fueron condenados en el Tribunal Federal de Distrito del Norte de Illinois por conspirar y monopolizar la venta de autobuses de los productos relacionados con el tránsito a las empresas controladas por National City Lines y otras empresas, fueron absueltos de conspiración en la monopolización la propiedad con estas empresas. Las sentencias fueron confirmadas en apelación. (es) National City Lines, Inc. (NCL) was a public transportation company. The company grew out of the Fitzgerald brothers' bus operations, founded in Minnesota, United States in 1920 as a modest local transport company operating two buses. Part of the Fitzgerald's operations were reorganized into a holding company in 1936, and later expanded about 1938 with equity funding from General Motors, Firestone Tire, Standard Oil of California and Phillips Petroleum for the express purpose of acquiring local transit systems throughout the United States in what became known as the General Motors streetcar conspiracy. The company formed a subsidiary, Pacific City Lines in 1937 to purchase streetcar systems in the western United States. National City Lines, and Pacific City Lines were indicted in 1947 on charges of conspiring to acquire control of a number of transit companies, and of forming a transportation monopoly for the purpose of "conspiring to monopolize sales of buses and supplies to companies owned by National City Lines." They were acquitted on the first charge and convicted on the second in 1949. (en) |
