????? I'm afraid that your conclusion is incorrect regarding interstate 
restrictions being law based. MBTA (Massachusetts) runs commuter trains to 
Providence RI which is also served by AMTRAK from SS Boston, NJ Transit runs 
trains for NY State (Metro North) to Port Jervis to Hoboken etc. The reason 
NJ Transit does not serve Philly is that there are prior agreements not to 
provide a duplicate service, not any legal reason. Interstate services were 
deregulated years ago. The ICC was disbanded. It doesn't even exist anymore.
