Z Scale Full Throttle Southern Pacific SOPAC 51' Cylindrical Hopper Set
The Southern Pacific (SP) was a huge American Railroad, founded in 1865 and incorporating many smaller railroads such as the Texas and New Orleans, Central Pacific, Morgan's Louisiana and Texas, and St. Louis Southwestern (Cotton Belt).  The Southern Pacific, headquartered in San Francisco, CA, owned many narrow gauge routes and subsidiaries such as the Northwestern Pacific Railroad and the Southern Pacific Railroad of Mexico.  SP's rails ran through Illinois, Missouri, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, California, and Oregon, including a route southward into Mexico!  Rio Grande Industries (D&RGW) bought the SP in 1988, kept the Southern Pacific name, and expanded it's trackage to include Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming, then, virtually the entire Southwestern USA!  Following years of financial problems, in 1996, the Southern Pacific  was bought by the Union Pacific Railroad.
