Now in its 4th year TexRail is absolutely empty; Biggest taxpayer boondoggle in Tarrant County history.

The new class 745 and 755 operated by greater anglia are made by stadler. The trains are basically the same as texrail but the one in the UK is bi-mode which means it can run on overhead lines or diesel.
