Le St. Louis Southwestern Railway of Texas (sigle de l'AAR SSW), était un chemin de fer américain de classe I qui exploitait les lignes Texanes détenues par sa société mère le St. Louis Southwestern Railway (SSW ou Cotton Belt). Le St. Louis Southwestern Railway, mieux connu sous le nom de The Cotton Belt Route ou simplement Cotton Belt, fut créé le 12 janvier 1891, mais ses origines remontaient à plusieurs petites lignes qui reliaient le nord-est du Texas à l'Arkansas et jusqu'au sud-est du Missouri. Le Southern Pacific Railroad racheta le St. Louis Southwestern Railway en 1933, mais ne fusionna le St. Louis Southewestern Railway of Texas qu'en 1954. Et ce n'est qu'en 1992 que le Southern Pacific finit par fusionner le Cotton Belt.

The property of the Texas and Louisiana Railway was acquired and merged on July 2, 1903. In 1948 the St. Louis Southwestern of Texas operated a total of 856.82 miles of track. The Interstate Commerce Commission authorized St. Louis Southwestern Railway to lease the Texas company in December 1953. The lease was entered into on March 1, 1954 to maintain, operate and use properties of the company until July 1, 1990. The track miles of the St. Louis Southwestern Railway of Texas operated under lease by the St. Louis Southwestern Railway in 1967 were 753.74 miles. This was further broken down to Main line 558.87 miles and 194.87 miles of yard track and sidings. The Southern Pacific Company gained Interstate Commerce Commission approval to control the Cotton Belt system on April 14, 1932 but continued to operate it as a separate company until 1992, when the SP consolidated the Cotton Belt's operations into the parent company. During its years of operation, the revenues from operations in Texas generated more than $1 million per year, qualifying the line as a Class I railroad by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The St. Louis Southwestern Railway of Texas was leased to its corporate parent on March 1, 1954.
