All Aboard Florida makes their pitch to a Town of Palm Beach group. The reception seems warmer there than other places further north on the line. Click title for link. From the article:
Thirty-two trains will make stops throughout the day from 6 a.m. until 9 p.m., with the last train arriving at Miami or Orlando at midnight. Service will be seven days a week.
“You’ll be able to get on, relax and have a great ride up to Orlando” without the inconvenience associated with air travel, she [Carol Henderson, director of the partnership alliance for All Aboard Florida] said.
The new passenger service will require far less energy — the equivalent of one gallon of gas per passenger for the ride from Miami to Orlando — compared to about a tank and a half of gasoline if you were to drive, Henderson said.
Greg Beletsky, president of the Worth Avenue Association, said he looks forward to using All Aboard Florida to make day trips from Palm Beach to the fashion district in Miami without having to brave I-95.
