More about this project:

 
Brightline’s new South Terminal at the Orlando International Airport (MCO) is a part of the company’s Phase 2 expansion into Central Florida including a Tampa extension. The massive infrastructure project is making progress and encompasses four zones including the area of the Orlando International Airport and the Brightline Vehicle Maintenance Facility. This monumental endeavor, which will use 225 million pounds of American steel, will include the laying of 490,000 ties and transporting 2.35 million tons of granite and limestone by 20,000 railcars. Additionally, approximately 2 million spikes and bolts will be hammered and put in place over the next 36 months.

While our Orlando station nears completion, we’re rolling out 170 miles of new track to get you there from South Florida. Construction is underway with service expected in 2022.

Located in the South Terminal at Orlando International Airport (MCO), our Orlando service is your connection to a major International hub including Florida’s favorite theme parks and attractions.
