Phelps Dodge RR or Hildago Smelter NM
Author: mococomike

In looking at google maps it looks like the line is still there from the UP main the the site of the Hildago smelter near the Mexican border in NM. Does anyone have photos of this line in use or know much of the operations? It looks like the smelter closed in 1999.

Rails are gone from the end of the I10 bridge to what was the smelter.

Pretty much middle of nowhere, only shots I've ever seen were of the GP30s parked just South of the SP
line.
