Description

Press release from City of Fort Worth: December 28, 2021 On Dec. 30, the Trinity Railway Express will celebrate 25 years of providing commuter rail service across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The TRE debuted on Dec. 30, 1996. Operating between what is now EBJ Union Station and South Irving Station, the 10-mile commuter rail line saw more than 4,000 riders during its first day of operation. Five years later, on Dec. 3, 2001, the TRE finally realized its full vision. Stretching from EBJ Union Station to the Fort Worth T&P Station in downtown Fort Worth, the TRE became a commuter rail system that serves the needs of all residents across North Texas. As part of the celebration, the TRE is offering riders the opportunity to win 25 days of free rides. Participants who share their fondest TRE memories have a chance to win 25 regional day passes. Entries will be accepted through Jan. 2.   Photo: TRE connects the downtown areas of Fort Worth and Dallas, with stops in the Mid-Cities and at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.   Get articles like this in your inbox.
