History
The STE was incorporated October 29, 1908 to build a 27-mile line from Stockton to Jenny Lind, CA. The road opened from Stockton to Bellota (18.5 miles), and was sold under foreclosure on January 18, 1919. The line was purchased and operated by E.F. Davis until December 31, 1926. It was cut back to Linden in the 1950s. The company was owned by the Stockton Terminal Company (Beard Family) from 1958 to 2011, when Omnitrax, the current owner, purchased the line.
