It was established by an interlocal agreement between Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) and Trinity Metro. Named after the Trinity River, which flows between Fort Worth and Dallas, the TRE was launched on December 30, 1996, operating from Dallas Union Transit Station to the South Irving Transit Station. It runs along a former Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad line that the cities of Dallas and Fort Worth purchased in 1983 for $34 million. The TRE fleet included diesel multiple units, in the form of 13 Budd Rail Diesel Cars (RDCs) built in the 1950s for Canadian Pacific (9), Canadian National (3) and Boston & Maine (1). They were purchased used from Via Rail Canada in 1993. All were remanufactured by GEC-Alsthom in Montreal. This video was made in September, 1998.
