Blue Comet no, you should cry because it happend. Because a greedy railroad that bought and screwed over Tons of other railroads took down one of the most successful and well put together railroads of all time next to the PRR.
I would not trade my memories of growing up all over the west coast and seeing the SP on a daily basis. I would go train watching as a teen back in the 1980's and 90's. Long live the SP you made me happy!
@@Point_Capistrano i wish my country's truckers work together instead of agaisnt each other. Imagine all those railroad comapnies working by themselves it would be a hassle to keep things working
Wow; I just happened to search “Southern Pacific” and by sheer coincidence I found this video!

Thanks for uploading this because I loved the 1st gen diesels and the can forwards but I also love 4449 and 2472. I mean it when I say this really touched my inner railfan soul
That transition at 2:11 gives me chills every time. I also like how after that, the footage is more modern, showing how SP lived on even past its merger with UP.
Me too. From the shot of th Gandy Dancers to the Southern Pacific Heritage Unit. Unfortunately that locomotive is SO dirty someone said since it was sittin' in a yard for a long time, it might get scrapped... I SURE HOPE NOT!
0:43 these old units is what got me into trains. While all my brothers watched cartoons I watched Trains. And this vibe of old locomotives just brings back my childhoods
It’s sad that Southern Pacific had to have a terrible ending in 1996. They ruled the west coast with Santa Fe and many other railroads. Shine on Southern Pacific, Keep on rolling.
Southern Pacific lives on with model railroaders whose layouts are Southern Pacific. 2 of my 3 most favorite steam locomotives are the Southern Pacific GS4 4-8-4 locomotive number 4449 in Southern Pacific Daylight colors & the Southern Pacific cab forward 4-8-8-2 AC12 steam locomotive number 4294 which is on display at the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento which is the nations very best state railroad museum.
@@BAS19.6 The Western Maryland railroad in 1973 along with the Chesapeake & Ohio, Baltimore & Ohio, Illinois Terminal along with the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie later in the 1970’s became the Cheshire System(Chesapeake & Ohio) till it merged with the Seaboard Coast Line to become CSX in the 1980’s. CSX didn’t want the Western Maryland line, so it became a tourist railroad. The Western Maryland from Cumberland,Maryland West is a tourist railroad at the present time.
You know, I had a dream that Amtrak bought southern pacific from UP. Not gonna lie it was a good dream. Old engines were brought back, and old lines were rebuilt/refurbished. It was amazing.
Makes me miss a railroad I never was around to see. SP built my local line (Mojave Subdivision) you can see the SP logo on many of the bridges. Without the SP I don’t know where I would be as an enthusiast. There were so many innovations that came out of this railroad that shape modern railroading, especially in Southern California. I miss SP, even though I never met it. “As long as there’s a U.S.A. SP will haul the freight.” God, I wish that would be true. As for now, It’s still somewhat true, with many crews out of Bakersfield having started back in the SP days. SP is alive, but I worry about when it fades.
In Fresno there used to be an old SP Line that connected the San Joaquins and Eastern Railroad at a junction that is now abandoned. I’ve been interested in it for awhile now.
Trains and nostalgia aside, from a musical standpoint, this is definitely one of the better train songs, or more specifically railroad theme songs out there. It's got an organic sound, not pretentious, and just a good song in general.
It lives on with model railroaded whose layouts are Southern Pacific. Next month I will be picking up my Kato N scale EMD SD70M Southern Pacific number 9804 that Obie's trains where I buy my N scale track & freight cars from in Apache Junction,AZ
Lyrics: When they drove that golden spike in 1869 It opened up the American West to the Southern Pacific Line A thousand miles of wilderness, heard the hammer's ring And voices of the gandy dancers sing Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home Portland to New Orleans, all along the golden crest Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West On spikes and ties laid down in time to some old fiddler's reel We're forever stitched together with a million miles of steel Right on the clock, the rolling stock helps keep this country great As long as there's a USA, SP will haul the freight Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home Portland to New Orleans, all along the golden crest Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West The Cotton Belt, the T&L, the Denver Rio Grande With all the others proud and strong, coupled hand to hand Pulling every grade and curve, a single heart and mind Making sure the job gets done out on the SP line Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home Portland to New Orleans, all along the golden crest Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West Roll on big iron lady through the mountains and the plains Roll on men and women with tradition in your veins Keep the drive wheels turning all across this great land Blow that whistle loud and long, the future's in our hands Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home Portland to New Orleans, all along the golden crest Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West
Remember that UP still owns locomotives that worked for the SP! They might not be in their home paint but they still have a second chance with their new railroad, and with their original history of the railroad they started with.
A few months ago, I had a really great dream that the Southern Pacific locomotive (speed-letter paint scheme) was being used as a snowplow on a street running railway in my suburban neighborhood in New England so that some MBTA Silverbird subway cars could pass after it.
Technically, you're right. When it merged with UP, the Southern Pacific Transportation Company was renamed Union Pacific Railroad Company, and took the UP identity.
“Right on the clock, the rolling stock helps keep this country great As long as there's a USA, SP will haul the freight” Bittersweet af hearing this for the first time, being from florida there’s a good chance I’ll never get to see a SP engine, or anything of the sorts besides the heritage units. The USA outlived the SP, although the memories live on!
There is a Southern Pacific diesel that now works at U.S. Sugar in Clewiston, where steam locomotive 148 runs. The diesel is painted in USSC colors, but it is still from the SP.
Its so sad that the SP basically was the railroad that innovated so much into shaping the rail of today. From developing the first diamond to building the Tehachapi Loop which is now used by the UP and BNSF, to many more innovations they contributed to the industry and ideas that later other railroads used, its such a shame to see it start to be erased. The SP basically built California, it built LA and San Francisco, you can still see their logo on bridges they built all over CA and basically all street running in CA was SP, the SP had no boundaries or obstacles it couldnt cross, thats why roads were built along the SP rail lines, you can also thank SP for the Alameda Corridor right of way. SP doesnt get enough credit for all they established, SP should have been the one to buy up the UP, not the other way around.
@@KCSRailstudios i know but i think one thing that did affect the SP alot was the beginning of outsourcing manufacturing as well, since the SP ran north to south mainly. It mainly served local industries within the US, for further distribution within the country, in LA its former tracks and branches would mainly run along industrial areas and you can still see track remains next to abandoned or converted warehouses, same with former SP tracks here in San Diego. It was a railroad that loved to serve the local economies
Technically SP actually did kind of buy UP, as SP was the surviving railroad of the merger... Then for some reason they changed the name to Union Pacific... So the current railroad is actually SP under the UP name... Except SP itself was bought by Rio Grande in 89, so technically speaking the Denver and Rio Grande Western is the largest railroad in the world.
Hell they helped me get out west thank you railroad alot of ingeneers seen me they gave me water and stuff but they helped me get out hear I'll always remember the railroad guys they helped me alot
Let’s just take a moment to remember all of those fallen flags that are so dear to us. From southern pacific, conrail, Norfolk and western, Milwaukee road, western Maryland, and the hundreds of other ones that I just don’t have the time to write. We miss you
were i work the up runs daily behind my office, and if iam lucky i still get to see a few of the diesels in the orginal cotton belt colors still adorned the spirt will always live on
Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on! From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home! Portland to New Orleans all along the Golden Crest, Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West!
great video....big fan of Sant Fe (ATSF ) now BNSF but this was brilliant .. The black and red SP paint scheme is one of my absolute favourites too ...I model in HO Santa Fe but I have a couple of SP locos too because I like them so much ..Cheers from Australia ..
Sad part is we still got the usa but we dont have the southern pacific I miss that railroad I might have not lived when it was a thing but im happy it lives on in our hearts and model railroading
R.I.P Southern Pacific, The Railroads Aren't The Same Without You! All Railfans Will Miss You! #rollon #southernpacific #trains Long Live The SP I Miss You!
The sp yard over in San fransico. Still has its roundhouse although in a much sadder state as it lost its roof and has dirt bike tracks on it In fact you can still see the switch that lead to the yard There’s even a old southern pacific Pullman coach over in San Jose With a few other locomotives
Any idea where the clip at 1:11 is from? After counting the RPM of the drivers, this engine is doing 114 mph or thereabouts and I’d love to know the original clip.
I wasn’t alive during the time of sp nor was alive when it was light but I know it’s affects to this day. SP created the Caltrain corridor and I am ever grateful for them for the tracks they laid to help me get to my destinations.
Question I was told that because of what happened on sp 7551 east crash that when they start to have problems I don’t know I wasn’t around when southern pacific was around or when the merge happened
I was lucky enough to see Southern Pacific locomotives on freight trains well after Union Pacific bought them. I remember seeing them often on freight trains through my town.
There train songs are great big rolling union pacific, norfolk southern what's your function, southern pacific roll on, santa fe theme song, and all aboard amtrak.
The video is excellent and the song is catchy too. Excellent work! On a side note, I hope #4460 gets restored someday. She would compliment #4449 nicely.
@@creeperkillere Yeah. That's why it's often called "The Forgotten Daylight". #4460 is a GS-6 class on display at the Museum of Transportation in St. Louis. It's the only GS class locomotive to make it to preservation, apart from #4449.

Lyrics: When they drove that golden spike in 1869
It opened up the American West to the Southern Pacific Line
A thousand miles of wilderness, heard the hammer's ring
And voices of the gandy dancers sing
Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on
From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home
Portland to New Orleans, all along the golden crest
Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West
On spikes and ties laid down in time to some old fiddler's reel
We're forever stitched together with a million miles of steel
Right on the clock, the rolling stock helps keep this country great
As long as there's a USA, SP will haul the freight
Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on
From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home
Portland to New Orleans, all along the golden crest
Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West
The Cotton Belt, the T&L, the Denver Rio Grande
With all the others proud and strong, coupled hand to hand
Pulling every grade and curve, a single heart and mind
Making sure the job gets done out on the SP line
Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on
From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home
Portland to New Orleans, all along the golden crest
Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West
Roll on big iron lady through the mountains and the plains
Roll on men and women with tradition in your veins
Keep the drive wheels turning all across this great land
Blow that whistle loud and long, the future's in our hands
Southern Pacific, roll on, roll on
From Chicago through the Rockies, America's your home
Portland to New Orleans, all along the golden crest
Southern Pacific, the spirit that won the West

The SP song mentions Portland Oregon a lot more times than the Union Pacific song.
Imagine if Southern Pacific would come back as a Shortline Railroad (Just like the Rock Island RR).

Nice train video
