Aerial photos show a bit of the Roscoe end of the Roscoe, Snyder and Pacific Railway still existing, with a bunch of cars stored on it. The RRB says that operations ended in 1984, and the Handbook of Texas agrees with the exception of the Roscoe end. Who now owns and operates this stub? Does the RS&P still exist as a nonoperating company, or did the UP acquire it?
