3:00-6:00pm RGRR began in 1870 as the only railroad in Texas and one of the few in the United States. RGRR ran a twenty-six mile route between Point Isabel and Brownsville and consisted of three locomotives and fifty-six cars. RGRR was owned and operated by several Brownsville businessmen. It was created in an attempt to break the transportation monopoly held by riverboat owners Richard King and Mifflin Kennedy, who later became owners of large ranches in the area. RGRR had a loading / unloading pier 1000 feet long, built over the shallow waters of the Laguna Madre. Lighter boats would offload cargo from ships offshore of Point Isabel and deliver it to the pier to be offloaded once again. This process was reversed for cargo shipped from Port Isabel. This pier was rebuilt in 1928 by the US Corps of Engineers and used to deliver the granite rock used to construct the Jetties. A Father and his Sons Make a Great Team! Alfonso Salazar, better known as “Dirty Al”, originally started sh*****ng as a young man with his father and 6 brothers. In 2003, he and his youngest son, culinary school graduate Cameron, transformed his bait stand into a restaurant where together they have been known for having “The World’s Best Fried Shrimp”! In 2005, his other two sons returned home to help grow the business. They now own 6 restaurants on beautiful South Padre Island and continue to bring only the best Gulf Seafood to each customer’s table.
