On September 22, 2000, during the first week of Trinity's expanded service, a train of Amtrak equipment -- on short-term lease to TRE -- rolls out of downtown Dallas.

Although this train was photographed operating with only the "stealth" F40PH 399 -- and an Amtrak cab-control car at the opposite end of the train -- the Amtrak train sets soon began operating with two F40PH locomotives -- one at each end of the train. This equipment remained in service on TRE through early 2001.
