Texarkana has by far the largest,
neatest and best kept railway yards of
any city in the two states. Indeed,
despite the immense amount of work
done in these yards, the thousands of
cars moved daily and the loading and
unloading of same, it is an actual
pleasure to contemplate the neatness
and cleanliness in which they are
constantly kept. In view of the fact
that all visitors to our city and strang-
ers travelling through pass along the
entire length of these yards, their
cleanliness and excellent keeping are
not only desirable but actually bene-
fetal. The companies and their local
yard men are to be complimented on
the above facts.
