Introduction

Today's Pacific Belt Rail System is the combination of several railroads which have been merged together to create a strategic alliance, and strong rail network that spans the North American landscape. The Pacific Belt Rail System is a combination of the Chicago Kansas & Pacific Railway, Chicago Pacific Coast Railroad, Gulf Coast Western Railroad and Arizona Western Mexico Railroad. Several smaller railroads are also included within the Pacific Belt Rail System, including the Chicago & Southern Indiana, Denver & Gulf Coast, Great Lakes Railway, Pacific Belt Terminal Railroad, and Seattle Tacoma & Pacific.

As a part of Pacific Belt System Incorporated, the Pacific Belt Rail System is a major part of North America's leading transportation company. Combined with Pacific Locomotive Leasing, Pacific Railcar Leasing, Cascade Rebuild Center, Pacific Logistics, Western Fruit Express, and Western Coal and Pipelines Ltd., the Pacific Belt System is North America's first choice for integrated logistics solutions.

Pacific Belt Rail System has a rich heritage which we are proud to build upon. Today's innovations are inspired by the great achievements which our predecessor companies have accomplished throughout their illustrious existence. As a tribute to the great railroads that make up today's Pacific Belt Rail System, a series of the railroad's newest locomotives have been painted in heritage paint schemes to honor the history of the railroad.
