I had the opportunity to ride the DART rail Red Line from Plano, TX, to downtown Dallas this week.  This is the first time that I've ridden DART, and I must say that I was impressed.  Free parking at the Park and Ride, clean trains, courteous staff, and the convenience to my downtown conference made the two round trips that I made enjoyable.  I also noted the extensive Green Line construction with other routes to follow. 

DART is, indeed, an impressive system.  Now, if you want to be disappointed, ride the Houston system - poorly conceived and poorly designed.

 I think DART has it together when it comes to light rail,I only wish the commuter rail could expand to outlying areas...
