The Iron Horse forever changed the American West, from a wild frontier to a network of scattered settlements tied together by steel rails. Behind the romantic image of the galloping Iron Horse, however, lies a rich history of American business activity. Railway giants have dominated this history, but small companies such as the Quanah, Acme and Pacific Railway Company (QAandP), a short line that operated in four counties of northwestern Texas from near the turn of the century into the 1980s, had just as great an impact in their areas of operation as the giants did on the national scene.Hofsommer, Don L. is the author of 'Quanah Route A History of the Quanah, Acme & Pacific Railway' with ISBN 9781585440467 and ISBN 1585440469.
