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.

Durable non see through fabric
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
This room divider is exactly what I need. It is very durable and easy to move around. You can’t see through the fabric. I love it. My reason for purchasing this divider is to use as a divider and as a backdrop holder. And it serves both purposes perfectly. It looks much better in person than on camera. It did have the spots on one side on all of them but in a few days they went away. It foldaway and tucked away easily.

Great product
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
Love the look of this after it’s put together. It’s pretty sturdy and the connecting clips allow you to shape it different if you need it to fit in a corner. We use this at work so it’s great for the space we use it in. A little hard to store because it doesn’t fold up nicely because of the feet on it but I’m happy with it overall.

Does its job
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
For the price the quality is decent. The only thing I do not love is the panels are attached to each other with 3 plastic clips. Only 1 side of the panel is actually attached to wheels. The other side kind of sits on the bar and is held in place with those clips.
