Bell Station is a Trinity Railway Express commuter rail station located in Fort Worth, Texas on Bell Spur Drive at Trinity Boulevard (between Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas). It opened on September 16, 2000, and is a station on the TRE commuter line, serving the city of Hurst, Texas and the main plant of Bell Helicopter Textron (which is physically located in Fort Worth, across the street from the station).

It is also the closest station to Arlington, Texas at about 7.4 miles (11.9 km) from the city's geographic center. And although popular myth states that it is the only TRE station not located in a member city of either Dallas Area Rapid Transit or Fort Worth Transportation Authority (Hurst), maps published by Mapsco, Rand McNally, and Google show the station to be clearly within the city limits of Fort Worth, several hundred feet from the city's border with Hurst.
