  • The time is almost here for the Tri-Rail to add expanded service to Miami Central Station. Soon, Brightline will no longer be the only commuter train option to downtown Miami.
    The goal was for the service to start at the end of this year, but there are a few finishing touches left before Tri-Rail can officially begin rolling into Miami Central Station. Starting on December 11th, Tri-Rail train times will be slightly adjusted as they gear up for this big move.

    The opportunities for regional rail across the US are opened up when we take care of and prioritize key intercity rail corridors. This is great news.

      as far as speed yes brightline runs from miami to orlando airport with bus that also can take you to the parks so brightline is doing well from what i hear more money then amtrak

      @trirail812productions8 5 месяцев назад

      but amtrak only runs 98 92 to new york thats it so if you wanna go to orlando you still can amtrak leads you in to downtown orlando but like how i said there are only 2 daily trains 2 coming from new york and if those 2 are late people are stuck for hours

      @Dimewick21 5 месяцев назад +14

      Not really competition. Brightline is a higher end, trans-regional service with very limited stops in exchange for much faster speeds. Tri-rail is more of a local service serving more far more stops but far more slowly.
      From West Palm to Miami, I’d likely chose Brightline, but from say Pompano to Opa Locka, Trirail would likely make sense.

    • @bennyr839
      @bennyr839 5 месяцев назад +6

      It's not a competition. It is an expended service from the west to the Brightline station in the east. Brightline rides through the east.

      like the others said yea Tri-Rail is a commuter rail whereas Brightline is a long distance high-speed rail, that don't sound like competition to me, the closest you have to that is Amtrak which just pales in comparison with only like 2 trains daily

    In Japan, a small country compared to USA, they have many different rail companies, sometimes even in one city. Some of them are even on the stock exchange. That is why Amtrak fails. Rail systems at the local, state, or regional level can achieve a lot. I'm impressed with Brightline system, everyone said they couldn't do it.

      Amtrak was established in 1971, before that it was all operated by private rail companies and they wanted to get rid of most of their passenger train services

      @morganboutwell8231 LOL the reason Bright Line is successful is because it is NOT govt-owned. They built in 4 years.

      @simondahl5437 China has built more miles of high‐​speed rail than any other country with $800 billion debt. None of its lines are covering operating costs. (As a result, China is shifting to building more roads.)
      France’s rail has debts of $70+ billion and has been repeatedly bailed out by the government. SPAIN built its system with a public‐​private partnership. It is $90 billion in debt. The state‐​owned Japanese National Railways has a debt of $550 billion. (Japan also has Highest debt to GDP of 300%.)
      Railroads are an OLD 1700s technology that is obsoleted by faster, more flexible travel technologies. High-speed rail loses tons of money & is a bad investment.

    • @thetreedemoknight4827
      @thetreedemoknight4827 5 месяцев назад +7

      On the contrary, trains do actually help lighten traffic a little bit by taking people off the road and onto the rails. The worst that a train may do to cars (assuming optimal operation for both sides) is a 2-minute stop for railroad crossings.
