The SP track in Niles Canyon was obsolete when it was abandoned. One figure quoted for cost to bring it up to modern standards is $45 million. Do you really think UP or ACE can justify spending that kind of money for about nine miles of double track?

BTW if you look at old photographs of SP track in Niles Canyon you will see some 45 mph signs so it wasn't totally 25 mph track.
