Downtown Brownsville 1960s Postcard
Title:  Downtown Brownsville 1960s Postcard
Description:  Upon careful examination, the Brownsville terminal tracks and train sheds can be found in the upper right of this pix. There is even a train that appears to be split in half near the originam Brownsville Depot. The photo is believed to be from the 1960s; which is plausible since Mo-Pac's Valley Eagle was discontinued 6-30-62. A nightly mail train (Pioneer) continued to operate to Houston until 3-15-66. Unknown when the tracks and downtown stations were torn down and removed.

RVSC McAllen Hauler
Title:  RVSC McAllen Hauler
Description:  About to pass one of the last oil-fuel dealer still located along the tracks in the Rio Grande Valley. Nearly every town had at least one, but over time they shut down and all traces have been removed. Most towns now have empty lots and open fields where these small oil distributors were once located. This one still was last carrying Exxon signs.
