Wow TRE looked way different back than especially when Centerpoint DFW station only had one platform
Wow 1000 and 1001. I actually got to ride in cab of 1000 and 570 back in 2000 before 9-11. Thanks for great throwback times.
Glad it brings back memories.
Man this is golden! I hope you got some videos of 1000-1001 at a crossing , mane those things looked so nice.
Awesome to see more footage of TRE's mythical UTDC Cab Cars. Just looking at them fills me with wonder. Even just photographs of 1000 and 1001 are very rare, so finding any actual videos of them makes me feel like I've found actual treasure. As far as I can tell, 1000 and 1001 are so strange and mysterious, that many people, even those who saw the units in person, don't even know they existed. That's saying something right there.
The interior of that DMU car looks great. It would have actually been pretty cool if they had managed to get some of those in operation, or perhaps if Colorado Railcar hasn't collapsed, maybe TexRail could have used something like them instead of the bland Stadlers.
This is gold! i think the company that made the DMU went bankrupt before TRE even got their order.
TRE got their RDCs used
@@Emerald-764he’s talking about the Colorado rail car near the end of the video
Oh alright, I didn't even realize TRE ordered those
I am so glad you managed to get the shots of a sign about the Texas electric railway car I think that's what it is I could be wrong or north Texas traction company they took it down I don't know why but they need to put it back up
Okay I'm running a lot about the stations from these awesome videos you have posted and the trains themselves I just rode for fun when I was a kid I didn't really pay attention to all the details now I wish I did LOL
12:36 At the time this was filmed where was urban car 411 being stored at and where is it located now?
At the time this was filmed Car 411 was being restored under the highway across from the Ft. Worth T & P station.
I believe the car is now on display in Burleson, Texas.
Okay well I just saw an amazing shot they actually had the benches inside of the waiting area moved to where the tnp tavern now sits I was told that used to be the diner for the station many years ago
Check out the Tandy Center Subway video. It was in Ft. Worth. It ran from February 15, 1963 to August 30, 2002.
@@barrytrain662 I've seen it it's interesting it's the world's only privately owned Subway and probably the world's shortest Subway too LOL it was only 3/10 of a mile long still pretty cool my folks told me when I was just a little kid that took me on the McKinney avenue Charlie and the Tandy Subway but I have no memory of thathowever I do remember riding the tarantula trade when I was 5 years old from grapevines at the stockyards now that was a fun day did you film that train by the way?
I have a recommendation for you you should make a full length history program about the Trinity railway Express I plan to do one myself eventually
Wait so center Port was only a single Lane station originally I thought it always had two tracks running through interesting
Okay so I see there was another Texas traction company car on display where is it now cuz I've only seen the one at ITC
