Under the contract, Wabtec will provide wayside signaling and communication services, including a control and command center, for the line.
The TEXRail line will begin in downtown Fort Worth and extend to the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. The service is projected to carry more than 13,600 daily riders using nine rail stations when it’s fully built.
