The I&GN line between Fort Worth and Waco was built in 1901. It bridged over the Santa Fe near Venus, and crossed the MKT at Italy. The MP was able to abandon the line built by the I&GN from Everman to Waco by obtaining trackage rights over the MKT between Fort Worth and Waco in the early 60s. The MKT began installing block signals between Hillsboro and Granger around 1920 and completed the installation of signal from Fort Worth to Hillsboro in 1922.
