Just played for the grand opening of the Trinity Express equipment at Union Station in Dallas Saturday. I was playing so couldn't see the locomotive however the coaches looked like the "sounder" showed in Trains Mag. a couple of months back. Maybe someone knows what equipment was used or was even there for the ride.

The rolling stock for the extension of Trinity Rail Express service is former Government of Ontario Transit equipment from Toronto. TRE acquired it several years ago and has thoroughly refurbished it for its new services.

mccannt,
Thanks for the info. I understand they have one more week of free rides.
I'll have to make time for one.
