This comprehensive overview explores the history and evolution of transportation regulation in the United States, focusing on the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) and its establishment under various acts, including the Elkins Act and the Reed-Bulwinkle Act. It discusses the powers of the ICC as a quasi-governmental body, its gradual deregulation phase, and its eventual replacement by the Surface Transportation Board (STB) in 1995. Additionally, it touches on freight forwarders, brokers, and the competitive landscape among transportation modes such as rail, motor, water, and air.
