Honestly, we should have these all across the country connecting cities and states. You can get all across Europe by train alone. Imagine how much the US could benefit from a high speed rail system or just more passenger rail systems in general. It'd probably fix our traffic problem.

My city of Jacksonville proposed a commuter train service back in 2017 and I've been anxiously waiting for updates ever since. Just a few weeks ago, Jacksonville announced they're replacing their worthless monorail system with driverless cars... Unbelievable.
@@floridianrailauto9032 unbelievable is an understatement, that's dumb
@@mworld2611 Not only that but they're building a toll road and rebuilding a bridge so soon enough I'll be paying to get across the St Johns river on a crowded route which used to be free. Their proposed train network would've connected all the suburbs and towns in the region which would save miles on my car if I took a train, and make driving more enjoyable when I do drive
Let's not forget, this could have been green lighted in 2009 had politics not gotten in the way
If I’m not mistaken Rick Scott got in the way
@@serg407 exactly my point
More Alligators let's go!!!!
Rick scott saw Brightline and decided to himself that he would now love trains
Never vote Republican again!
Correction: higher speed rail (not high speed rail)
Apparently the speeds are suppose to increase a lot faster in the northern sections. General above 120 MPH is considered HSR
@@Blaze6432 I know
@@carlose4314 So in that case it's not just " Higher speed rail"
From Cocoa to MCO, there will be no crossovers of roadways, allowing for high speeds. Between West Palm Beach and Cocoa, it will be limited because of the periodic road crossovers. Roaming Railfan on UA-cam has some great footage and info on the entire project.
High speed rails is anything 110 MPH or more.
Im from Denver and we have one of the best light rail systems throughout the Entire Denver metro. With how florida has 50% more people in only 25% the space of CO, Central Florida needs a train system. With how populated Florida is here there is hardly any transportation.
its so abysmal that florida doesnt have one inch of light rail. the closest thing is the TECO streetcar in Tampa thats a heritage tram going to be modernized and expanded
Can y’all build this thing tomorrow PLEASE?
😔✊
Yes, please oh please, make this happen as soon as possible
Yes please.
DO IT, WE NEED IT!!!
I think it's great. One came through where I live in Vero beach. Its fast and quiet compared to the freight trains that come through.
Do a Tampa to Daytona train line…it would be nice for the Daytona 500 😂
Agreed 👍👍👍
It will likely happen in the future.
Maybe if they expand to Jacksonville
@@SpectreMk2 "future" meaning within the next 50 years
Would be amazing if brightline did a full on network instead of 1 long line, like 1 line on each coast with a few lines that connect the 2 lines.
It’s about damn time after 30 years. Train should also stop in Lakeland, Plant City And Brandon with stop at Hard Rock and other places. Train should be electric powered like in Europe.
LETS GOOOOOO
I've seen the proposed routes to try and get this train into town and it really is not a good idea to misuse high(er) speed rail like this. If you want train service into downtown (sort of), you are better off having a local train that connects parts, parts of downtown, and the airport train station. Run the Siemens double decker Mireo (diesel version) between the Orlando station, downtown, and the parks. It is the appropriate train for the job.
how would you plan on stacking smaller commuters intercity (different size and type of engines and cars) into a space meant for smaller engines and train cars?
How long will it take to get from Tampa to Orlando?
🙌🏾😩thank god
Central Fla forgotten ? Should b high trail service from and to Sarasota st Pete and Clearwater from Lakeland Lakeland Polk county growing. Need transpired to coastal cities !
this is the exact information from 4-5 years ago... LAME>
They might as well just make it a circle. After Tampa leg is finished from Orlando, connect Tampa to Naples then back across to Miami
Still no stop in Stuart. 😔
Well stuart dont got shit so
@@scubigaza5445 but it would’ve made my transportation so much easier.
@@christophercancel934 well your mayor and council men have a role in this not happening
200kmh makes grade crossings really dangerous
They aren’t able to go 200kmh on grade crossing only on sections there are regulations against that but there are sections that don’t have grade crossing that do reach 200mkh
So they are going to spend millions of dollars laying travk and building a station when there is track into Tampa with a station?
Tracks that are grade-separated allow for higher speeds and for less delays from having to allow cars to cross. They're also safer
Edit: Also much of that track is owned by freight companies that almost certainly would give priority to their own trains rather than some passenger train. This happens on much of the lines that Amtrak operates and it's a large part of why Amtrak trains are late. And that track is usually not suitable for the speeds that Brightline wants to run their trains at
@@BIoknight000 I understand all that my point being you could have trains running now into TPA instead of waiting years for it to be built by Tax Dollars. Because you know the Tree Huggers will fight every mile of the way. I'm not saying don't build it but in the mean time..
@@donise8406 Ahh, I see I misunderstood now. I don't believe this railroad is being built with tax dollars so you don't have to worry about that. Brightline is privately funded and operated. The only tax dollars might be tax breaks or incentives the state or localities might be giving it.
@@donise8406 brightline is a private company so it won’t use tax payers money
@@No-le9qf So are every sports team in Florida and how much taxpayers money went in them? Orlando Sentinel "A further extension from Orlando to Tampa would include an investment of $15.9 million in private funding combined with $31.8 million in funding from the federal Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements grant program, according to WFLA." Grant money is Taxpayers money.
America has the worst public transportation in the world.
Yep
I think Yemen’s is worse
What decade is that train from, the 80's? Ever heard of Shinkansen?
A bit over kill for Florida considering the track is on ground level.
@@bonda_racing3579 So is Shinkansen and most other high speed trains around the world.
@@justaninja1 The track goes through roads. (Railroad crossings) which is dangerous for brave morons in cars.
No these trains are based off the Siemens venture cars so mid 2000’s
@@travelsofmunch1476 no the cars these are based on cars(siemens viaggio comfort) from around 2003 and these cars were only build in 2017 so only 5 years ago
U-S-E-L-E-S-S
Yeah useless for people that won’t use it but it well be useful for everyone that decide to use it instead of using there car skipping the bad traffic and of course traffic jams
Cars are not the future anymore now make way for good transport lol 😎
As a commuter from Orlando to Tampa for school it’s quite the opposite
