GRAPEVINE, Texas — TEXRail began its operations in January 2019, ferrying passengers between Fort Worth and Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.
Today, the bucolic and historic Grapevine community is an ideal place to watch TEXRail. The downtown station is located next to Harvest Hall, giving railfans an option to grab a drink or a bite to eat when not watching trains.

A provision in the proposed Railway Safety Act would require railroads to notify states about the types and frequency of trains carrying hazmat transported through its boundaries.
The Louisville & Nashville Railroad’s Chicago-to-Miami Dixieland Flyer passenger train approached the junction at Guthrie at about 4:30 or 4:45 p.m. on June 29, 1957, as a westbound 29-car freight train, No. 121, heading toward Memphis and pulled by two locomotives, approached the at-level crossing.
