My Mom and Dad and I went railfanning in Athens, Tx on Mothers Day and shot some pics of what we thought was an abandoned warehouse right on a spur on the old Cotton Belt (now UP) line....imagining what might have been stored here in the day...
....turns out it was full of several tons of ammonium nitrate ala West, Tex.....burned to the ground. FD wisely just let it burn vs putting water on it which contributed to the destruction in West...glad Mom put the cig out as we were stomping around there....
