Description

Streetcars at the Pass, Vol. 1: The Story of the Mule Cars of El Paso, the Suburban Railway to Tobin Place, and the Interurban to YsletaIn 1881, the railroads came to the dusty West Texas town of El Paso bringing drummers, lawmen, gunmen, gamblers, ladies of the evening, miners, and untold others. They did not all have horses or buggies and the town fathers soon recognized the need for a mule powered streetcar system. This is the story of how those mule cars carried the colorful characters of El Paso around town and across the Rio Grande to Mexico. It is also the story of the spoiled

In 1881, the railroads came to the dusty West Texas town of El Paso bringing drummers, lawmen, gunmen, gamblers, ladies of the evening, miners, and untold others. They did not all have horses or buggies and the town fathers soon recognized the need for a mule-powered streetcar system. This is the story of how those mule cars carried the colorful characters of El Paso around town and across the Rio Grande to Mexico. It is also the story of the spoiled town pet, Mandy the Mule, and the remarkable survival of the car Mandy pulled, No.1. The author takes extraordinary care to separate popular legend from documentable evidence.

The story of early day mass transit would not be complete without the sad tale of Tobin Place and its railroad after the turn of the century as well as the intriguing tale of the much anticipated, but little used, plush electric interurban to Ysleta.

Amazing product
I got the engraved paw print necklace with my dogs name and it is great. My dog died a few days ago and I bought this to have him close to me and I am very happy with the size, chain length, adjustability, and the customization options. I got an alert less than 24 hours after my purchase saying it was shipped which I really appreciate how fast they got it customized and in the mail. It feels like great quality and I was shipped an added pair of metal stud earrings as an extra bonus. Because of that I knew I wanted to leave them a five star review. Thank you!

Misleading and not worth it
Gem Type: no gemstone, Item Display Length: 6.5 Inches
This bracelet is very misleading. It’s very very thin and is very delicate. You can barely see the charms. Definitely not worth the price I paid. Do not buy.

Beautiful bracelet very dainty!
Gem Type: no gemstone, Item Display Length: 6.5 Inches
Beautiful bracelet very dainty! In the picture the bracelet looks like it is a little thicker. In person it is very thin and dainty. If you have broken bracelets easy in the past I would not recommend. It is very beautiful on though!
