Could someone cite definite dates for when these folks used names such as Southern Pacific Company, Southern Pacific Lines, etc? Whenever I see paperwork or photos, they seem to merely show "Southern Pacific." What about Southern Pacific Railroad, or? I do not have any material around home which would supply me answers.
You weren't the only one to ask this question. See: http://www.trainboard.com/grapevine/showthread.php?97083-Southern-Pacific-Lines I hope this helps.
