Excerpt from Railroad Engineering, Vol. 3: Instruction Paper
The complicated financial relations existing between operating roads and their leased lines introduces some other items which are entered under fixed charges.

Another item is placed, when it occurs, among the fixed charges; this is the rental paid for a leased road. As this is an intercorporate payment, it did not appear in the above general summary for the roads of the United States, nor did it appear in the detailed statement of the road previously described, since that road had no leased lines.
