The Western Rail Road is a 1.9miles shortline railroad owned by Cemex[1] that connects a Cemex quarry and cement plant at Dittlinger, Texas (just south of New Braunfels), to the Austin Subdivision of the Union Pacific Railroad (UP). The company was incorporated in March 1974 as the PB Railroad, and the present name was adopted in September 1975. The line was completed by the end of 1976, connecting the quarry and plant to the parallel Missouri Pacific Railroad and Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad lines (now both UP).[2]
