Trains from the Dallas-Fort Worth commuter rail system are currently shuttling down to the coast and loading up people to evac out.
Don't be surprised to see Metro trains from other TX cities getting people out.
Yep, the train I took into work was different than the normal ones, they explained that was the reason. Gee, and they didn't even need FEMA to tell them to do it.
If anyone is still looking for hotel rooms:
There is an NHRA Drag Racing National this weekend in Ennis. If it is cancelled, there will be some hotel rooms available tomorrow.
Start checking around that area for rooms. Most have been booked for months and are reserved for Thursday thru Monday. Call the hotel instead of going online. Sometimes they say the rooms are booked on line but are still available when you call them up.
