A.C. Greene's editorial about the "Sam Houston Zephyr"
For those unfamiliar with A.C. Greene let us acknowledge he was a big name newspaper reporter
and author in Texas. In 1965 he wrote an editorial in the Dallas Times Herald (I think) about cutbacks

Re: The Train That Makes a Thousand Stops
My mistake
My magazine is the Railroad Magazine
May , 1954.
The article is Saga of the Cotton Belt by Ches Parsell.
Great history of the road from Fordyce to Gould. Conversion to standard gauge

The Train That Makes a Thousand Stops
I found an article in Railroad Magazine with that title. Date unknown, but I
think 1954. Author is Robert Hegge.
It relates the story of the Cotton Belt supply train ("peddler") that plied the
rails
