I went back with one of the construction workers and cleaned up the rails a bit for the next set of pictures.
the company used to move harvested salt around in miniature rail cars, recently replaced by the trucks -- but the rail lines are still running all around the complex, on top of the levees, many of which have been made not only out of dirt/mud but also salt! it`s an all-salt operation...
