Texas Railroad Sesquicentennial - Sesquicentennial week

In order to document the sesquicentennial anniversary of rail service in the state of Texas, we hoped to recruit as many photographers as possible to photograph trains and railroad scenes on the actual anniversary date, Sunday September 7. But we realized that not everyone would be able to participate on that exact day. Additionally, since not all railroads operate on Sundays (Dallas-Ft Worth's Trinity Railway Express, for example) we decided to be a bit more flexible in our submission guidelines, extending the dates of coverage to include the week leading up to the "real" Sesquicentennial.
