Following the GM&O through its next generation, you will see how Ike Tigrett's railroad, through his successors, F. M. Hicks and Glen P. Brock, went about its day-to-day business: acquiring new customers; developing the unit coal train; purchasing new power; and participating in the advent of Amtrak.
