Centered on Texas, the extensive rail system spreads throughout much of Louisiana, Arkansas, Indian Territory, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas and Colorado. Also named and delineated with green overprinted color; the Texas & Pacific, San Antonio Div. Int. & Gt. Nor. Gulf Railroads and several more, with all rail stations noted.
