Texas Rail Trail  




The Texas Rail Tourism Alliance held its first meeting on November 4, 2000.  The organization was formed to promote railroad-related heritage tourism and established the Texas Rail Trail website and a TRTA brochure to help meet that goal.  Member organizations are encouraged to cross-promote their special events along with railroad tourism as a whole.  Meetings are held quarterly at different locations throughout Texas.
