Freight Train 200
Freight Train 200 is a multiday ultrarunning event held December 3–6, 2026, between Wolfe City and Farmersville, Texas. The event is organized by Sigma Wolf and is presented alongside shorter race fields on the same route.
Distances offered:
- 200 miles
- 100 miles
- 50 miles
- 25 miles
The course follows the historic Northeast Texas Trail (NETT). The organizer describes the course as flat and runnable, beginning at Tom Ellis White Campground and finishing at the Farmersville Onion Shed. The 200 mile race has a 72 hour maximum course limit.
Starts are staggered across the event days so different distance fields run on overlapping sections of the same path. Pacer rules are specified: pacers are permitted for 200 mile runners after Mile 50 and for 100 mile runners after Mile 25; pacers are not permitted for the 50 mile and 25 mile fields. Timekeeping uses manual clipboard logs at checkpoints backed up by continuous video recording at the timing arch.
The event notes coordination with local school and community groups and mentions local outdoor retailers in the nearby McKinney area as resources. A registration closing date is listed as December 1, 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
