Texarkana, Railroad city in Texas, United States
Texarkana spans across Texas and Arkansas state lines, with State Line Avenue serving as the physical border between the two sections of the municipality.
The city emerged in 1873 when the Texas and Pacific Railway intersected with the Cairo and Fulton Railroad, establishing a major transportation junction.
The Museum of Regional History, housed in the oldest building in Texarkana, presents exhibits about local development and regional artifacts from past centuries.
The Texarkana Regional Airport connects the area to major cities, while multiple highways including Interstate 30 and US Route 59 intersect in the city.
The State Line Post Office operates in both Texas and Arkansas simultaneously, making it the only federal building that functions in two states.
