Opened in 1855, at the costs of 5k-10k workers, the railway preceded the Panama Canal by half a century; the railway was vital in assisting the construction of the canal in the early 1900s.
The railway's motive power consists of ten former Amtrak F40PHs, five EMD SD60s and two EMD SD40-2s from the Kansas City Southern Railway, and one GP10. The locomotive numbering scheme begins with 1855, honoring the year in which the original Panama Railroad was completed.
