It looked like it was no longer in use; is it still in service? An article in today's [u]LA Times[/i] about the Minutemen (landowners in southern Arizona lending eyes and ears to assist the US Border Patrol) had several photos, of both the Minutemen and the folks who wanted to sneak across the border; all of these photos showed a railroad track in the background. Most of the pictures were probably the line in Mexico that parallels the border, but the one that was in Arizona also shows a track...according to the 1999 Professional RR atlas this line is no longer in service Reply Join our Community!
