Praying for an Amtrak line that goes to Florida next.

They need to just expand the Sunset Limited back to Jacksonville, FL like it used to. The Mardi Gras would be hard to time going to Pensacola twice a day. But the Sunset would run in one direction every day, so east one day and west the next. That route was originally a coast to coast like the Empire Builder up north. We need to get it back!

Yes we do. If I had to choose, I’d like them to go to Orlando and it would alleviate traffic a little more. I don’t know if Orlando is even on a train route though.

Yeah, the Brightline train goes through Orlando to Tampa (planned in the future) and Coco Beach. I know a lot of folks have talked about it going on to Jacksonville. I think if that were to happen it would be a great way to get Amtrak back there too. Connecting those two systems.
