Steel Wheels and Mexican Hookers

money was invented for handing to women, but buying dances is a chump's game
That image from the film adaptation of "Like Water for Chocolate" sticks in my mind. It is the girl, one of the 4 sisters, being set up in a rail box car, and the polite and appreciative men who are lined up for her to service. A volume operation, with the girl maybe not even getting to her feet before the next one.
I believe that I showed up once as something like that was starting. It was at one of these Santa Barbara Candle Shops, i.e. an occult store, in San Jose. I showed up as the door was being unlocked, but at least 20 Mexican laborers were there already. Then a woman came, tight pants, high heels, died hair, a very well kept MILF. The woman went into the back room and then the men lined up inside the store.
I didn't know what to make of this, it was not what I was expecting. The shop keeper wanted to run me off. I don't know if she was going to take on some of the men herself. But I left quietly, and without asking questions.
Then there was a book written by an American woman, I think from Atlanta. It has a forward by Atlanta Mayor Andrew Young. She describes her own career, and how in later years she was being taken out to migrant Mexican farm worker camps and being set up in a shed and taking care of a whole line of them for $20 each.
Like Water for Chocolate would have been right near Eagle Pass / Piedras Negras, and in 1910. The girl would go on to be the commanding general of the revolutionary army.
Images of trains and stories about commandeering trains run throughout that revolution.
What got me thinking about all of this was that I was reading the latest issue of Trains Magazine, and I read about this Pacific Imperial Railroad, which runs along the border, from just East of Tecate, to Plaster City by Salton Sea. About 70 miles of track, but only about 40 miles as the crow flies.
It has been out of action for 30 years, but now they are trying to rebuild it.

And then running from Tijuana to this border crossing East of Tecate is Baja Rail.
They say that Pacific Imperial Rail plans to run 100 car multimodal trains, one per day. These will carry the output of all the factories in that TJ and Northern Baja area. Previously trucks had been driven to LA or San Bernardino.
So besides rebuilding the tracks, Pacific Imperial Railroad will build it's own multimodal center.
I had thought that by multimodal they mean trailers on piggyback cars. But maybe they mean the cars used to carry the containers used in ships. These might weigh more and so their load capacity is less, but I believe they load easier and faster. Then also since they are without tires or a license plate, they are cheaper. As it looks like they will be handed over to Union Pacific right at the Salton Sea, then they might be going quite far and not coming back so soon.

And then sure enough, steel wheels at Piedras Negras, just like they showed in Like Water for Chocolate

Steel wheels fascinate me, just like Mexican hookers do. I want to be highly involved with both, and patterns for putting the two together are already established.

So many words, so little interest

In Mexico the rail roads have always been a subject of national pride. I believe they are nationalized.
So I see it like this. Of course I would always be keeping a few empty box cars around, as they will sometimes come in handy.
Maybe I could convert one so that on the outside it still looks like a box car, but inside it is my very own Master Suite on Steel Wheels.
Maybe I could just could just convert a regular passenger car instead.
Or maybe an old caboose! A bit shorter than a box car, and end doors instead of the big sliding doors, and windows and those observation seats. Think of that, my own rail caboose, for entertaining purposes of course.

I've spoken about San Jose's Beloved Latina Escorts. They didn't have any rail cars, but they did have a Chrysler mini-van, with all but the front seats taken out, and with its big sliding door and in a back parking lot, it worked just as well as a box car.
And why this image of a Mexican whore on her back doing one guy after another? It's because unlike with American women, the Mexican women actually respect the men they are servicing. They don't divide them into the successes and the pathetic losers. And likewise, the men respect the women, so there is some civility to it.
In the Mexican Revolution, trains were just like Ezekiel's Chariot:

Anyway, so besides entertaining, what would I be doing with rail roads in Mexico? Well obviously, I'd be teaching some extremely pretty Mexican hookers how to drive the trains. After all, when the big crash comes they'll be the ones delivering the food, and the rifles, and on both sides of the border.
