As of 1969 the most mileage that Santa Fe had in any one state was in Texas with over 3500 route miles. So large was the Santa Fe system in Texas that the company continued to maintain two subsidiary companies within its boundaries as late as 1965, the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe in the east and the Panhandle and Santa Fe in the west.

Chapters included are Construction and Development of the Santa Fe in Texas, Termination Dates of Principal Santa Fe Passenger Trains in Texas, Santa Fe in the Lone Star State 1949-1969, Santa Fe Passenger Equipment, Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Stations and a map of Santa Fe Lines in Texas.
