Questão jurídica principal
Whether the bankruptcy of the Nationalbahn caused the concession transfer of 1877 to lapse for purposes of the extension request.
Decisão extraída
The court did not decide the transfer-validity question definitively; it held only that, for the present case, the founding committee still appeared to be the concession holder because federal approval of the transfer had not yet occurred.
Fundamentação extraída
The underlying validity of the transfer could only be decided in proceedings involving the founding committee as a party and was not before the court.
