Bryan, my guess is that SP already had the necessary lines through Texas and the Gulf Coast without expanding the SLSW route. I think one of the biggest benefits to SP from the Cotton Belt was the latter's route into (East) St. Louis and the BLUE STREAK MERCHANDISE traffic which SP handled from TX to CA.
