While trying to find more information about the "Silver Slipper" of the T&P I ran across some "Names" I have never heard:

Texas Ranger

Texas Triangle

What line were these trains on and where did they run to/from?

The "Ranger" was a Santa Fe train. The "Texas Ranger" was a T&P train (No. 6 & 7) from at least 1933 to 1942---perhaps even earlier and later than those years.
