1. Go to the station. TRE rail stations feature connections to other transit services and free parking at those stations with Park & Ride facilities (no overnight parking).
2. Buy your ticket. You must have valid fare media to board the train - a monthly or annual pass, valid transfer slip (T Service Area Only), E PASS or validated ticket/day pass.
Fares are based on where you board and depart, not how far you travel. The fare zone boundary is between West Irving Station and CentrePort/DFW Airport Station. Please check the fare category (LOCAL, PREMIUM or REDUCED) to make sure the fare media you use is valid for the zones of travel you will cross.
3. Before boarding, check destination signs, which designate the final stop.
Ticket Vending Machine Fare Media
You must have a valid ticket to board the train. If you board without a valid ticket, you may be issued a citation that can be resolved by paying a $75 administrative fee to DART or that can be resolved in court. Only when the police or fare inspectors confirm that ALL ticket vending machines were out of service at your station of origin, will a citation not be issued.
It is good practice to arrive at the TRE platform 10-15 minutes prior to the departure time of the train to allow yourself enough time to purchase your fare media from the ticket vending machine, even if there is a line.
Single-ride tickets are good for transfer to the T local bus. Single-ride tickets are good for train-to-train transfers to DART light rail and valid for 90 minutes from purchase.
For assistance, information or machine malfunctions, call the toll-free number listed at the station pay phone.

State Law Change: Effective September 1, 2003 - people riding TRE trains without paying the appropriate fare will be subject to a fare evasion citation requiring them to pay a $75.00 administrative penalty.
MONTHLY/ANNUAL PASS HOLDERS:
Please be sure to have your pass available for inspection every time you ride the train. If you have forgotten it, you will need to purchase a non-refundable day pass or single ride ticket before boarding. TRE relies an “honor system” with random fare inspection. Anyone riding without a valid pass or ticket will be issued a citation, and fees or fines cannot be waived. Thank you for your cooperation.
