During the second week of April, Waco's TxDOT campus enjoyed the company of employees, retirees, friends and neighbors for the agency's 100th anniversary celebration.
Historical artifacts, antique equipment, schematics, photographs and many memories were displayed throughout the district administration building for fellow Texans to enjoy. A restored 1918 Liberty Truck from TxDOT's early years was also on display as part of a tour throughout TxDOT's 25 districts statewide. | See last month's story on the Liberty Truck reconstruction
All in attendance contributed conversation, experiences and stories of their time or experiences with TxDOT. "It's great," retired District Shop Superintendent Dale Sanders (1957–1963) said of the displays. "Some of the stuff you can recognize is really great."
