The RS & P Railroad, located in west Texas in the far southern section of the Texas Panhandle, opened in 1908, and soon established itself as one of the most profitable short railroad lines in the nation by becoming a " bridge route", linking the major lines of the Santa Fe and Texas & Pacific, enabling California fruits and vegetables to be now available in 5 days to the booming new markets of the southeatern United States, including New Orleans and Memphis.
