Brightline’s design for its intended station just east of and adjoining Terminal C at the Orlando International Airport is right on point for what is needed to attract intrastate train travel in the State of Florida. For South Florida to Orlando transportation, the car is possible but not ideal, and air transportation is inefficient. So combining the ease of access through the airport with the panache of an upscale retail experience, it’s a solid entry into repositioning trains as a viable efficient mode of transportation for point to point in-state travel.
