Bill, I don't believe one R.R. could carry you from the east cost to the west cost during WWI. The REA was created to insure that one organization was responsible for shipment of packages throughout there entire journey. During Parker Bros. production it may have required 4 different railroads to deliver a package from Meriden to San Francisco.
