DESTINATION

Waco

The construction of a suspension bridge in 1870 increased business and trade, and Waco joined the ranks of the rough-and-tumble cow towns. The railroad came to Waco the following year, thereby securing the town's commercial progress. Modern Waco is the largest marketing center between Dallas and Austin; its economy focuses on diversified industry, agriculture and education.
