The San Diego and Imperial Valley Railroad (AAR reporting mark SDIY) is a shortline operator on the San Diego and Arizona Eastern Railway track in the United States (the Carrizo Gorge Railway (CZRY) is the SD&AE's operator in Mexico and the Imperial Valley). The SD&IV has been owned and operated by RailAmerica since 2000; it had been previously owned by RailTex (which RailAmerica acquired) and operated with the reporting mark SDIV. The SD&IV operates on two lines; one is the San Diego to Plaster City line via Mexico and the other is the San Diego to El Cajon line. The SD&IV has four locomotives although it often utilizes additional locomotives from other RailAmerica shortlines. The railroad interchanges with the BNSF in San Diego and the Union Pacific in Plaster City.
