Railroad and Kingston campgrounds

Railroad campground, 33.6 miles, SH152E, improved (toilet, tables, trash fire rings)

Google Maps view

Between Upper Gallinas and Iron Creek is another small improved campground, Railroad, but I can't recall going in. It's located at the end of a short service road, and is a good hiking spot.

Edit: I just came back from Railroad, and found it to be a pretty sweet little (three tables) campground. Flat, spread out, and shady, with a toilet, trash, and fire rings. Not sure why I didn't stay here before.

Railroad campground

Kingston is a tiny village on the far side of the Black Range (46 miles), with an equally tiny campground of two tables and a toilet...

One table is off all by its lonesome, the other is at the far end near the toilet and information board. Kingston is the smallest improved site in the Gila I know of, but an excellent spot to stay if you're exploring the area, or just losing daylight.
