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.
