Gateway Subdivision
The Gateway Subdivision is a railroad line in the U.S. states of Oregon and California owned by the BNSF Railway.
==History==
The earliest traces of railroad activity on the Gateway Subdivision traces to two major (now fallen flag) railroads, the Great Northern Railway (U.S.) and the Western Pacific Railroad. Historically, the Great Northern laid track from Klamath Falls, Oregon to Bieber, California and the Western Pacific laid track from the famed Keddie Wye near Keddie, California to Bieber (Actual town is known as Nubieber, today. Bieber is the RR name for the location). In March 1931, both railroads met in the town of Bieber. Within no time, trains began to travel the newly completed railroad line. The railroads offered interchange service, where Great Northern trains handed over their trains to the Western Pacific and the Western Pacific transferred their trains to the Great Northern.
This trend, continued until 1970, when the Great Northern Railway merged with the Northern Pacific Railway, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad and the Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway to form the Burlington Northern Railroad. Western Pacific operations however, remained until 1983 when the Union Pacific Railroad took over the Western Pacific and it became under the control of the Burlington Northern and the Union Pacific Railroads. In the 1990s, the Burlington Northern Railroad merged with the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway to form the BNSF Railway. And the trackage became wholly owned by the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway.
