Trinity Railway Express, Amtrak, and Freight trains in Dallas & Fort Worth

Videos of trains at Dallas Union Station and Fort Worth Central Station. On this day I took the 7:12am train from CentrePort to Dallas to film the morning rush hour and hoped for some freights too and luckily I got a few. I headed to Fort Worth on the 11:00am TRE out of Dallas to see the Amtrak Heartland Flyer’s Big Game Train arrive at Fort Worth and ride it to Dallas. That’s where I met up with some friends and we rode in the lounge car to Dallas. To get a good runby video of the big game train, we headed to Irving on the next westbound TRE after getting off of Amtrak in Dallas then waited for Amtrak at Irving. Our Amtrak arrived at Dallas at about 1:42pm and was going to deadhead back to Fort Worth at 2:15pm. We also got Amtrak 22 going 75mph which is what we wanted. After that I headed back to CentrePort and decided to call it a day.
Thanks for watching!

Thanks! I appreciate it

Looks like 121 got up to a rough start with the bell going a little wonky and the horn sounding a bit weird

There is NO Fort Worth Central Station. This is the Fort Worth Intermodal Station.

[@dfw_railfanner]

It’s both

Does anyone knows when the f40phs arrives? They said early September but it been way past that.

[@Davis9754]

i was wondering that too. there’s this video of two f40ph TRE trains number 130 and 131 leaving georgia that was published a few weeks ago, or maybe it was recorded even a while back ruclips.net/video/VmQaBvBjzXw/видео.html
i hope that they’ll get their way to the metroplex soon.

does the amtrak use the TRE line? how did you get amtrak in irving?

[@North_Texas_Railfan]

Amtrak uses the TRE line but doesn’t stop at any stations in between Fort Worth and Dallas. I took the Big Game train to Dallas and took a westbound TRE to Downtown Irving station to catch the deadhead Amtrak go by
