Superior to Queen Creek - Closed Bridge - Railcart in Arizona US.

The Magma Railroad, also known as the Magma Railroad, was a railroad that operated in Arizona, United States, from 1915 to 1984. It was built to serve the Magma Copper Mine, located in Pinal County, Superior, Arizona. The Magma Copper Mine was located in the heart of the Superstition Mountains, in an area known as the Magma Mining District. The mine was discovered in 1904 and began operations in 1906. Because of the large amount of copper ore being mined, an efficient mode of transportation was needed to get the ore to markets. Thus, the Magma Railroad was built, which began operations in 1915. Initially, the railroad operated on a narrow gauge (3 feet), but in 1924, it was converted to standard gauge (4 feet 8.5 inches) to facilitate connection with the main line of the Southern Pacific Railroad. During its operation, the Magma Railroad played an important role in the development of the mining industry in Arizona, transporting copper ore and other products. However, over time, the demand for copper ore transportation decreased and competition with other modes of transportation increased. Therefore, the Magma Railroad was finally closed in 1984. And today in this second part .I finish traveling with my railcart from route 60 to Superior. I still have to travel from route 60 to Magma together with Union Pacific tracks fully in operation. But that will be in the next adventure of the railcat. Thanks
