The Southern Pacific had two parallel routes between Eugene, OR and Dunsmuir, CA. The original route was the Siskiyou Line through Ashland as shown on this timetable. The Natron Cutoff through Klamath Falls was completed in 1926; it reduced curves and grades and was 25 miles shorter than the original alignment. Over time, all SP passenger service was shifted to the new line through Klamath. However, through World War II and into the mid-1950's, a rump passenger service was kept running on the old Siskiyou line between Portland and Ashland, called the Rogue River.
