Text: 14 Canadian National argues that the ICC misanalyzed the anticompetitive effects of the merger and Guilford's incentives to downgrade the Boston & Maine's north-south service and the Danville and Yarmouth Junction interchanges. 5 Intervenors Guilford and Delaware & Hudson support the ICC's decision. For the reasons given in Lamoille Valley, 711 F.2d at 315-323, we conclude that the Commission failed adequately to explain why Guilford would not downgrade service at Danville and Yarmouth Junctions. We therefore remand to the Commission on this issue. With regard to north-south service, we affirm the Commission's conclusion that the merger will neither substantially reduce competition nor affect essential services. 15
