There is a snack bar on board the train that serves snacks, sandwiches, chips, soft drinks, cocktails, and souvenirs.

There is very limited, same-day parking at the intersection of Gaylord and Sheridan by the station. There are parking garages in the area, many of which may be covered, that may be a better choice for longer term parking. However, these may charge a fee.

You can get a cab in front of the station and the train station is the central hub of the T, Fort Worth’s bus system. There is also the Trinity Rail Express, or TRE, that travels to Dallas from Fort Worth.
