Central pacific aquired Southern Pacific in 1868 and merging with it in 1885, Note that SP is really CP (the aquirer kept the aquiree's name). about a century later, SP aquired and merged with UP and kept the UP name. Eerie isn't it that means UP is actually CP and this is pretty ironic considering the two were the ones that built the first transcontiental are now one road.
