On a one day turn around to Fort Worth your time will be limited.  The train arrives at 12:39 p.m. and departs at 5:25 p.m.  It has a decent on-time record, so you should have about 4.5 hours of free time in Cow Town.Sun Dance Square, as one writer has suggested, is close to the Intermodal Transit Center (ITC), which serves Amtrak, TRE, ‘T', and Greyhound.  To get there walk out the front door of the ITC and proceed straight ahead for two blocks.  Turn right and walk one block to the next intersection.  Turn left and walk past the front entrance of the hotel to Main Street.  Turn right again and walk for several blocks to Sun Dance Square.  It will take you about ten minutes to get to the square.  There are numerous restaurants near the square.  I like Billy Miners for a beer and sandwich or UNO for pizza.  There is a Starbucks on the square as well as a good barbeque restaurant nearby.  And there is a great Chocolate shop on the south end of the square to satisfy your sweet tooth.If you are a little more adventurous, you could probably make it out to the Stockyards for lunch and still get back in time for the train.  If you are planning to do your trip on a Saturday, there is a trolley (dressed like a bus or a bus dressed like a trolley) that runs from the ITC to the Stockyards.  It takes between 27 and 33 minutes.  The trolley only runs on Saturdays.  There is regular bus service from the ITC to the Stockyards on weekdays.  The run time should be about the same as the run time for the trolley.  Check at the 'T' information booth that is inside the station.Fort Worth is a neat city.  If you can stay overnight or for several days, a trip to the Fort Worth Zoo is worthwhile.  It is one of the best small city zoos in the United States.  In addition, the Amon Carter Museum, which features western art and photography, is really worthwhile.  Even folks who don't normally go to art museums like the Amon Carter.  Have a nice trip.
