Advocates try to revive plan to bring passenger train service to I-35 corridor in Central Texas | FO
SUMMARY: A proposal to bring commuter train service back to the I-35 corridor between San Antonio and Austin is being reconsidered by Union Pacific, seven years after it was initially rejected. The company has stated that it is open to new plans and will take a fresh look at proposals as they come up. This has generated excitement among advocacy groups pushing for more train service in the region. The proposed train would make stops in Georgetown, Round Rock, several locations in Austin, as well as Buda, Kyle, San Marcos, and New Braunfels. Proponents argue that it would ease congestion on I-35 and encourage people to ditch their cars for commuting. Currently, Amtrak only offers one daily train connecting Austin and San Antonio. Union Pacific has not received a specific request for service between the two cities but stated they have a process to evaluate all passenger service requests.
RESTART Lone Star Rail is trying to revive a plan to bring passenger train service to the I-35 corridor in Central Texas. John Krinjak has more in this week's FOX 7 Focus.

SUMMARY: Hurricane Barrel, currently a Category 3 storm, is impacting the Cayman Islands, where hurricane warnings are in place. It affected Jamaica previously and weakened due to wind shear. The National Hurricane Center’s forecast remains largely unchanged, predicting a landfall in far south Texas. Barrel is expected to weaken to a Category 2 hurricane as it moves across the Yucatan Peninsula and into a tropical storm over the southern Gulf. Warm Gulf waters might strengthen it back to a Category 1 hurricane before a possible early week landfall. Future paths include potential impacts on North Texas, with the heaviest rains predicted for central and far south Texas.
New models show that Hurricane Beryl is likely to make landfall in Texas next week. FOX 4 meteorologist Kylie Capps takes a look at the storm’s path and the possible impact it could have on North Texas.

The parade featured over 120 entries, with many staying hydrated in the heat. Paige Ellenberger reported live, sharing the community spirit and reflecting on a recent experience flying in a B25 bomber. The event emphasized unity and celebrating America's diversity.
