However, Trinity Metro officials said they expect to receive more than $229.6 million in revenue, the bulk of which will come from sales tax allocations of $135.5 million. Trinity Metro receives a .5% portion of the local 8,.25% sales tax. Operational costs for TEXRail and Trinity Railway Express, two popular passenger rail lines, will also increase. Trinity Railway Express, a route connecting downtown Fort Worth and downtown Dallas jointly owned by Trinity Metro and DART, will see an increase in costs. Trinity Metro officials spent about $19.2 million last year, but allocated about $23 million in fiscal 2026.
