Ferrocarril Mexicali y Golfo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ferrocarril Mexicali y Golfo was a railroad line in Baja California, Mexico, established in 1901.[1][2] Within a few years a controlling interest in the railroad was bought by the American Southern Pacific Railroad company.[1] The line eventually built was a predecessor to the Ferrocarril Sonora – Baja California. In 1929 the Mexicali y Golfo was reorganized as the southern line of the Inter-California Railway, under the name Ferrocarril Intercalifornia del Sur.[3]
