Travel Brightline Youmay already have heard about Brightline, Florida’s new, privately owned high-speed train service. Plans are in the works to provide a fast, three-hour service between Miami and Orlando’s Walt Disney World, by 2021. Future expansion is also planned for service to Tampa and Jacksonville, with limited stops in-between. The first section of the service is already operational, carrying passengers betweenMiami’s Government Centerstation (see MetroMover on page 27) with one stop at Ft. Lauderdale (1/2 hr fromMiami) and ending inWest Palm Beach (1 hr from Miami). The passenger accommodations are state-of-the-art with WiFi and 110v available at all seats, as well as dining and drinks services. The units are also pet- and bicycle-friendly. I hope that you have a chance to explore some of these Florida commuter transportation services. Enjoy themwhile all of the non-retired Floridian workers are busy at their offices.
