Read the excerpt from Section 6 of the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887. Every common carrier subject to the provisions of this a

ct shall print and keep for public inspection schedules showing the rates and fares and charges for the transportation of passengers and property which any such common carrier has established and which are in force at the time upon its railroad. A benefit of the Interstate Commerce Act to consumers is that the government will help pay for freight transportation by rail. railroads must clearly publish and honor posted schedules and fees. the government will require inspection of all passengers and freight. railroads may no longer transport goods across state lines.

Answer:

railroads must clearly publish and honor posted schedules and fees

Explanation:

During the late 1800s, railway companies were shortchanging their customers by hiking the prices of tickets to only some customers and as a result, the Interstate Commerce Act was passed in 1887 to stop this anomaly.

This Act was meant to ensure fairness in prices and regulate the excesses of the rail officials by requiring them to publish and honor posted schedules and fees.
