Texas, Gonzales, & Northern
|
Texas Gonzales & Northern operates a 12-mile branch east of San Antonio in south Texas.
The line runs from a connection with UP's Flatonia Sub at Harwood, south to the small town of
Gonzales. The railroad owns two locomotives: SW1200 # 92 and SW10 # 97. The 97 recently spent
several years on the Texas Rock Crusher in Brownwood, Texas, and was not present on TXGN property when
I took these photos in 1999.
