Spiderweb of RR development in the RGV 1930 |
Description: |
Mo-Pac map from 1930; SP had just arrived in 1929 and MoP was rightfully worried about the loss of its monopoly. This map is inside of the Hidalgo Pumphouse. It is a museum that has many interesting artifacts from the halycon days of industrial and agricultural development. |

Old Mill |
Description: |
This was the literal end of the line in Hidalgo after the Mo-Pac Hidalgo-Progresso-Rangerville-San Benito line was abandoned in the 1960s. The Trade Zone-Hidalgo section finally came up in the late 1980s. This mill was a rail-served industry. |
