[quote user="CMStPnP"]I've looked at the A-Train website and I am curious what the plan is for the DMU's once they are in operation.    Are they going to stop running at the Carollton Station or are they going to switch onto the DART rail line and continue onto Dallas Union Station.     I read somewhere the original plan was that they would switch onto the DART line and complete the ride to Dallas Union Station.     I don't remember where I read that though. [/quote] "DCTA passengers will be able to take the A-train and transfer to DART's services at the Trinity Mills station in Carrollton."   This sentence was taken from the DTA's website. The DTA's commuter buses run from Denton to downtown Dallas, although they get relatively few passengers.  But the train, at least initially, will make an across the platform transfer for passengers traveling south of Carrollton. The DTA rail line will probably attract a significant number of commuters traveling to Denton, which amongst other things is the home of the University of North Texas.  It is one of the larger campuses of the Texas University System.  In addition to a large student body, it employs a significant number of people living south of Denton.
