San Pedro and Southwestern Railroad
The San Pedro and Southwestern Railroad (reporting mark SPSR) is an Arizona shortline railroad, currently operating from a connection with the Union Pacific Railroad (UP) at Benson, Arizona, seven miles to Curtiss, Arizona. The SPSR formerly ran a total of 76.2 miles (122.6 km), with main track from Benson to Paul Spur, a location about 10 miles (16 km) west of Douglas, as well as the Bisbee Branch which ran 5.6 miles (9.0 km) to Bisbee, Arizona. The SPSR is owned by David Parkinson's "Arizona Railroad Group". David Parkinson has owned several other shortlines in California, such as the California Northern Railroad, under his ParkSierra Rail Group, now a part of RailAmerica. The San Pedro and Southwestern Railroad commenced operations in November 2003 when it purchased the San Pedro and Southwestern Railway (reporting mark SWKR) from RailAmerica.
David Parkinson acquired the line from RailAmerica in 2003 with "the intent of restoring transborder rail service with the Mexican rail system at Naco, Arizona, and developing North American Free Trade Agreement-related traffic, but that this plan never materialized."

Subzero
by: GatheringThe bowels of my thoughts, icy lake
Drain emotions from my bleeding soul
Tears that follow burn my skin
Dread to see myself, I ain't me
The sun encircles my shape on the ice
In my shadow I see people below
Their frozen faces staring blank
All crying without a sound
Thousand degrees below
Ice age has begun, Subzero
Emotions running low
My heart is so cold, Subzero
Hatred in words, spewing from their mouths
Verbal injection of a freezing void
Sunrise in three directions
As all the faces turn to laugh
Thousand degrees below
Ice age has begun, Subzero
Emotions running low
