FERROCARRIL
INTER-CALIFORNIA
Construction of this line began in 1905. It took four years to
build because of delays caused by the series of Colorado River floods
with
created the Salton Sea. Service began in 1909. The border
crossing east of Algodones was cut in January 1958. The section
from Pascualitos to Algodones was closed in 1959. The remaining section from Mexicali to Pascualitos became part of the Ferrocarril de Sonora-Baja California (S-BC), which connected at Pascualitos.3 (Kirchner, John. Baja California Railways) |

SUD-PACIFICO
DE MEXICO
The original line from Nogales to Guaymas was completed October 25,
1882 by the Ferrocarril de Sonora (FdeS). This line was a
subsidiary of the Atchisen, Topeka, & Santa Fe (ATSF). In
July 1898, the FdeS was leased to the SP in exchange for the Mojave to
Needles
line in California. In December 1911, SP purchased the FdeS from
the ATSF. It was renamed
Sud-Pacific de Mexico (SPdeM) and completed the line to Guadalajara in
1927. Construction was seriously delayed by the Mexican
Revolution, and problems building in the mountainous Barrancas
area. This line was nationalized on December 21, 1951.4(Signor, John, and John Kirchner. The Southern Pacific of Mexico and the West Coast Route) |
