Rio Grande City TX
Title:  Rio Grande City TX
Description:  Unlike the theme of Field of Dreams idea "if you build it, he will come" the Border Pacific attempted to build an industrial park. They built two spurs into this empty lot (making the trackwork themselves and it looked real dubious at best). A beat up almost ratty silo was hastily errected in an attempt to attract someone to ship something via rail. Eventually, everything was cleared from this lot, but I don't fault the owners of BOP for trying to increase their car loadings.

Rio Grande City TX
Title:  Rio Grande City TX
Description:  The metal building on the left was the first scrap paper warehouse that allowed neighboring RVSC boxcars to haul waste paper to Mexico for recycling. This warehouse had several fires and eventually, they moved to the other side of the tracks.

Rio Grande City TX
Title:  Rio Grande City TX
Description:  This view shows Border Pacific car storage. Out of view on the right, is the 2nd location of the paper waste warehouse. It too has experienced several fires. It no longer ships by rail because UP increased tariffs on paper waste shipments and neighboring RVSC had to retire its older fleet of ex DHNY boxcars.
