And no, it's just a Brownsville urban myth that the remains of portly port director were sealed in the old caboose. Lately, the sea air and plain wear had taken its toll on the wagon and the city has decided it needs a face lift.Don Wolfe, of Wolfe Sandblasting and Industrial Painting, said blasting the paint and primer off the old caboose would take all of two days, and then painting the traditional black and red color scheme another two or more.
We found a picture of the caboose sporting the signs of weathering and age. When Wolfe finishes the job, he said it would look like a new wagon.)

It would probably have been less costly to provide regular care to this caboose, than to wait until it is ugly and uncared for and have to pay more. But, that is a part of the Tony Martinez tenure, to spend more than he has to, in order to gain profits for his friends. By the way, why hasn't Cesar de Leon resigned...being the racist that he is? Why doesn't the city commissioners have enough moral courage or balls to challenge Tony Martinez for his desire to break the cities bank in spending?
This is the same Raul Besteiro who was the Port of Brownsville Director and under whose watch we taxpayers got cheated out of $21 million dollars for a bridge that never got built. How apropos that a rusty old train going nowhere is named after Besteiro, the corrupt pig who fucked over taxpayers big time. Everybody wants to forget that and say what a nice man Besteiro was. Yeah, he's rich and we're fucked.
There are twenty three million reasons to keep this symbol of the Port Bridge highlighted! Kapitch? Vaffanculo!
And two pigs, one known for corruption (RIP) and the other for kissing ass.
