St. Louis Southwestern Railway (Cotton Belt)

Reporting mark SSW

The SSW merged with the Southern Pacific. The Union Pacific Railroad later merged with the Southern Pacific railroad. Some locomotives continue to carry SSW markings. Many freight cars continue to have SSW reporting marks, when repainted typically keeping their SP reporting mark and number, while acquiring a UP logo.
