The Valley Eagle was a named streamliner passenger train of the Missouri Pacific Railroad that began in 1948.
It ran from Houston, Texas's Union Station to Brownsville, Texas at the Mexico–United States border and a second section to Corpus Christi.
[1] It made coordinated connections in Houston with trains from St. Louis (Texas Eagle #21/22), from Memphis (#201/202) and from New Orleans (Houstonian #309/310).
[2] The Missouri Pacific Railroad also operated the Pioneer, a night train counterpart that outlasted the Valley Eagle.
[3] After the Pioneer lost its sleeping car and its name, it continued to 1965 or 1966 as an unnamed night train on the route.
