@TrinityMetro had a fun bunch riding #TEXRail tonight. 50 constituents rode with CM @carlosfw from North Side to Grapevine Stn for his first rail town hall.
Community leaders from across District 2 boarded @TrinityMetro’s #TEXRail at the Northside station for a trip to Grapevine this afternoon. Tune into @ScottGordonNBC5 on @NBCDFW at 10PM to hear what they think about the benefits of rail in our community. #MyTimeToTrain
In case you missed it: @TrinityMetro launched their #TEXRail service from downtown Ft. Worth to DFW airport at the beginning of January and have already hosted 55,000 passengers. Check out their clever promotional video:

55,000 people have used #TEXRail since service started January 10. @TrinityMetro is now looking at options to extend the line to the @nearsouthside and TCU. https://t.co/ED3DvWMv4J
On this ride back from Grapevine: a guy who came in from DFW Airport working on his laptop, plugged into the train's USB ports, a group talking about how much more expensive it'd be to take Uber, two dudes who are clearly train nerds and a guy on a bike.
#Publictransportation is the best way to move about a city. It may not surprise you that it is the best way to move around the United States Capitol as well. The cars have been updated since this 1915 photo.
