The Brightline station in downtown Miami is right next to the federal courthouse.

I wonder if the Secret Service will force train service to be suspended on Tuesday.

One of the stations will be a huge parking lot in the middle of the desert.

Their efforts to open rail service between W Palm Beach and Orlando International Airport have proven to be embarrassingly insufficient.

It’s because of how Brightline is the first introduction of HSR for people down South. With the new push for HSR in the US, Brightline serves as a blueprint for how it can be done.

Better to open safely than quickly.

Service to Orlando International Airport has commenced.

Neither safe nor on time.
