About Texarkana, Texas

Texarkana is a city in Bowie County, Texas, United States, in the Ark-La-Tex region. In the late 1850s, the builders of the Cairo and Fulton Railroad were pushing their line steadily south across Arkansas. By 1874, they crossed the Red River and reached the Texas state line. (Wikipedia)
