Trinity Metro commuter rail station

Trinity Metro operates TEXRail from T&P Station in Fort Worth to DFW Airport/Terminal B station in Grapevine. The DFW Airport North station will provide transfers to the future DART Silver Line while serving employees of the airport, and promoting transit-oriented development. A bus loading and kiss-and-ride area (connected to the platforms via a pedestrian walkway) is located west of this station.[2] After announcements that TEXRail was green-lit, DFW Airport has said that they will provide $40 million to operate only the DFW Airport/Terminal B station, leaving Trinity Metro to operate this station.[3]

Revenue service commenced on January 10, 2019.[4]
