Bell station (formerly Hurst/Bell station) is a Trinity Railway Express commuter rail station in Fort Worth, Texas. The station is located near Fort Worth's border with Hurst, NaNmiles south of Hurst Boulevard (SH 10).
The station serves the headquarters and main plant of aerospace manufacturer Bell Textron. Trinity Metro previously operated an employee shuttle to two additional Bell Textron facilities in the area, which was discontinued in 2022.[2] [3]
Bell station (alongside CentrePort/DFW Airport) is a transfer point for HEB Transit, a paratransit service for the cities of Hurst, Euless, and Bedford.[4] [5]
Hurst/Bell station was part of TRE's first expansion alongside CentrePort/DFW Airport and Richland Hills. The station's opening ceremony was held on Saturday, September 16, 2000. The station entered regular service the following Monday.[6] Rides on the train were free until September 30.
Due to the station's proximity to the city limits, Hurst agreed to contribute $145,000 to TRE annually for the first five years of operation.[7] [8]
