Located northwest of Fort Worth lies TXU's Eagle Mountain Electric Steam Station. Still in service, this power plant was once served by a railroad spur approximately 2 miles long. The spur originated at milepost 597.6 on UP's Duncan Subdivision, and was anchored by TrinityRail Industries' repair plant #4, which is still in operation. Today, the only evidence that the spur existed are the small fills and cuts in the gently rolling landscape.
