SapphireSquirrel+FollowDallas Silver Line trains getting way quieterNorth Texas mornings are about to get a lot more peaceful—DART’s new Silver Line trains will soon stop blasting their horns at every crossing! Thanks to new quiet zones rolling out in Coppell, Addison, Dallas, Carrollton, Richardson, and Plano, those ear-splitting 125-decibel wake-up calls will be reserved for emergencies only. To make this happen, DART and local officials have added extra safety features like fencing and quad gates. For anyone living or working near the tracks, this is a game-changer. How do you feel about quieter trains rolling through your neighborhood? #Transportation #Dallas #DART00Share
