After Aguadilla, I don't know of any other remnants of the RR. The north coast of the Island is pretty irregular, and inland is very rugged land, what is called Karst formations, where the land is pockmarked by giant sinkholes. As late as the 50's poeple in PR were pretty geographically separated even though they live on an island because the terrain is very difficult. The train basically followed the north, west, and south coasts. The east coast of the island rises 6,000 ft straight out of the ocean, and is impassible. This geologic feature actually determines the weather. Hurricanes hit the east side of the island and are forced to the north and on to the Bahamas, Florida, or Hispaniola and Cuba; or forced to the south in to the Caribean sea. <br /> <br />I wish I knew what P&G stood for, maybe Patillas and Guanica.
