"The Texas and Pacific bought a controlling interest in the road at the book value of $160 per share in January 1927. However, the Cisco and Northeastern continued to operate as a separate company and completed an additional thirty-seven miles from Breckenridge to Throckmorton in April 1928. The road ceased operations in 1942."
