Does anyone have any knowledge on the abandoned railroad tracks at the end of Holly Road in Corpus Christi?
I went there not to long back, and the actual railing was so petrified, that you could crumble it in your hand. I found these tracks to be extremely interesting, especially due to the fact that it looks like that bridge fell out of the sky, and has no reason to be there. On both sides of the tracks you will find "road", with no scars or possible existance of railroad.
Looks like the Texas-Mexican Railway remains.

"The Texas Mexican absorbed the Texas Mexican Northern Railway Company in 1906 and in 1930 acquired the San Diego and Gulf Railway Company. On July 17, 1902, the railroad was converted to standard gauge. In 1939 the company acquired seven diesel units, becoming the first railroad of its size in the United States to completely dieselize its operations. In 1940 the company began operating the nineteen-mile railroad built for the United States government from Corpus Christi to the naval air station at Flour Bluff.".
