Unusual Move for BOP |
| Description: |
Some shortlines are really industrial or private carriers. They exist to serve a single industry. Such is the case for BOP. It hauls materials for its aggregates company. However, this is the first time that an inbound load of lumber has arrived in 20 years. While BOP has hauled scrap paper out; all inbound loads have been various sands for its parent company. Hopefully, BOP will continue to see more lumber loads for 2016. |

| 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. |

This is where the two tracks from the Border Pacific industrial park would have connected to their mainline. |

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. |

| 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. |

These silos have been inactive for years. There used to be a cotton gin plant, but it was torn down as the area has become more developed. |
