Norfolk Southern is fighting an Ohio-based activist investor, Ancora Holdings, who is seeking to remove CEO Alan Shaw and implement a host of changes at the Atlanta-based carrier. But years ago, Robert R. Young trod the same path with his efforts to take over the Chesapeake & Ohio, which were very successful. What happened with Young? Does Ancora have a chance?
