Several downtown stretches of DART rail lines have been shut down for the past few weekends for track replacement. The agency recently posted two time-lapse videos showing some of the work that’s been going into the project. 

You won’t need all 24 minutes to get the idea that it’s a massive project. Track work is scheduled to finish by Nov. 30.

Fair warning: you’ll want to turn the volume down.
