If the SSW was a subsidiary of the SP, then why didn't the SP invest for exspantion for the Cotton Belt??? <br />To me that dosn't make since. It seems like Southern Pacific didn't want to exspan the line. With Southen Pacific's Lines in Californa, a line to Houston in the gulf and industrise in the mid-west would double any income. To me it doesn't make a bit of since!!! <br />As for Texas laws, the SSW could move their HQ to Tyler, Texas. <br />Maybe with more rail and income the SP AND the SSW would still be around today and not in the big mess called Union Pacific!!! <br /> <br />
