The Texas Trail of Fame was established to honor those individuals who have made a significant contribution to our Western way of life. Throughout the walkways of the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District, bronze inlaid markers have been placed in recognition of their achievements. These markers are patterned after a frontier marshall's badge and are inscribed with the honoree's name.

It is the desire of the Texas Trail of Fame that reflecting upon these Westerner's accomplishments will serve as both an educational adventure for the visitor and an inspiration.
