Well it would have been nice. I pressed the button on the train doors that never opened and the train left without us. Spent less than 30 seconds stopped.

I had a John Stossel moment the minute I pressed the button to open the train doors and the damn thing started moving on me.

I had to check to make sure I wasn’t going crazy or anything. The train literally didn’t stop for a solid minute. Check the dates and time on the pics

I like freight trains, but passenger trains are beyond boring and the realm of commies that want to spend public money for their interest.
>>
>>2021444
Totally agree. I wanted to give them a chance today and was completely disappointed by how poorly that they ran. Train was stopped for literally 45 seconds. Absolute bullshit that the doors didn’t even open on the side closest to the waiting passengers.
>>
>>2021447
I wonder how many people actually ride it per day. It's a total loss on the service and the conductor driving the train must be miserable in that dead end job.
dang city slickers

It’s honestly a complete waste of money. Only has two good features: gets you to and from the airport, but it’s a pain in the ass to get to. Tried riding home from the airport and it’s an autistic struggle to first wait for an orange bus to take you to terminal B then the foreigner driving the bus will drop you off at the wrong level of terminal B so you’ll be forced to take an elevator and the n walk a quarter of a mile to the DART/TEXRAIL STATION

At certain times they’ll skip certain stations and I rode it at a time when I wasn’t sure they’d go to the station closest to where I live. I panicked and had my ride home pick me up at a different station.

The other good use: going to Grapevine which has a walkable Main Street and getting a sammich.

Even in the shittiest of DFW traffic, your car is still faster than this commie waste of money. I couldn’t imagine life as a wheelchair bound disabled person having to rely on this shitty service. I was literally standing next to the train trying to open the doors when the train started to move. I guess those doors were disabled. I saw a few other doors open and so I walked over that way and they closed and the train took off. Literally less than a minute stopped.

I called and registered a complaint and a request for a refund. I’ll let you know if I get any response or not.

Texrail wasn't the worst thing in the world when I was in the Metroplex, but it was darn quiet.
Was hard to tell the thing was even running until it came.

Went from the chaos of the Airport during peak winter travels, to empty train station.
Was much cleaner and tidier than anything at home, but it didn't feel like that was because of maintenance but rather because nobody had ever used the damn train.

TRE was much the same, although once you got to stations with DART lines they looked to have people on them.

Forgot pic.

Should we have an /n/ meet up and ride along on the Texrail?

I helped out an Aussie family who was traveling to the stockyards. They didn’t know about the new Orange busses that take you there directly from the train station. I watched to make sure the bud came before I drove off.

Should /n/ do a meet up and ride along? Would anyone here actually show up if we did it on a Saturday? We can go to Weinberger's and get sammiches. Anyone can ride along as long as they get to a station at the proper time.

Starting at 11:43AM in downtown Fort Worth T&P station, leading up to a 12:26PM Grapevine Arrival. We can do a ride along and meet up and go get sammiches as a group and then ride the train back home after 2 hours and 45 minutes. Anyone interested in such a thing?
