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.
