    FunFact: the bridge that connects to nowhere at The old Texas stadium site will soon be Jome to one of the Largedt Urban and Mixed used developments in the Entire state.
    The Empty Texas stadium site is The Last Swath of Available and Unsold land in the city of Irving, and they'll use it to Creat a entire New Mini City/community that will be as Rail oriented and Pedestrian oriented as possible.

    Thanks for sharing. I live in the San Francisco Bay area and we have a BART system that goes from all our airports [San Jose, San Francisco, Oakland] out to many cities within the bay area. I was looking at Dallas/Ft. Worth as a place to relocate with my tech skills and saw it's nice there is a transit system that can take passengers to the DFW airport direct. Again, thanks for sharing the info.

    West End used to be really cool in the 1990s but last time I was there a lot had changed/closed and it made me sad. As a Houstonian, I'm jealous of Dallas for having DART, though. Still better than our train.

    Do you know anything about whether the Las Colinas APT will reopen? I can't seem to find much news on it after service being suspended "indefinitely" last year. Also did you ride it while you were in the area?
    I visited a long time ago but I wasn't able to ride as I came after 6pm, sadly. I know it's gadgetbahn but it's so cute and I love the idea of a small community having their own metro (more or less).
    Great video as per usual!

      You can park your vehicle at Belt Line Station overnight, but DART is not responsible. I would recommend to call DART at 214-979-1111 to double-check and verify. For more information about parking at a DART station, check their webpage at: www.dart.org/maps/locationslist.asp

    Does the DART only connect near terminal one? Are the terminals within walking distances? Not familiar with this airport. Thanks
