Additional Details:
Across the Rio Grande from Brownsville, Texas, the first glimpse of Old Mexico is seen. It seems so strange to the average tourist to see the Ancient Mule Cars, Water Carts, etc. but nevertheless it is great sport to ride on these old time mule cars. The mule car line was built in 1872 and has been in operation ever since. On Bull Fight and Fiesta days it is crowded to its full capacity and does as much business as a modern car line could do.
