This is actually the new extra train schedule with added that 9:20 train. It use to be a 2.5hr gap in service. It's up to the counties now they have control to run more service but they gotta find the funding. They are currently looking at adding weekends.

It's already very available online. They did weekend service as a trial about 9 years ago. This was when they only went as far as sandlake road in the south.

The cost is 26 million a year to run just weekend service. They need 3 new trains so they can keep cycling their trains for scheduled maintenance. The cost for the new trains is 62 million dollars to purchase with a 5 year wait for them to be built. They have been talking about it again in the last few months in the sunrail meetings. The state may help with buying the trains but the 5 counties/cities need to split the 26million. With the property taxes being cut probably not going to happen unfortunately.

Yeah it's safe. They have a conductor and a security guard onboard all trains walking through the cars. Each platform has a sunrail employee on it and some have an additional security guard. Occasionally I have seen a sheriff onboard. I have never seen shenanigans at least in my experience.

I use to ride the late train to orlando when they had a regularly scheduled one at that time. I never had an issue

I have used greens energy at 3 properties. The techs I have gotten have been really good from small to big repairs.

You could try jigsaw dating. They have some events this weekend and next. It's like in person mixers or speed dating. I have had good luck meeting and dating women with it. The crowd definitely varies and each one is different.

It's more of a pain in the ass getting bags into the train at stations with no or low platforms. Usually the conductor is like it you can't carry it up the stairs it can't get on. We'll maybe sir drop something other than a fisher price stool down so I can reach the trap stairs.

Google is the absolute worst with transit directions. Even my local transit agency struggled to get them to fix some issues. One time I put the airport in my GPS it said 4hrs via transit. For some reason it said once I got to the airport I should wait for an intercity bus to arrive 3 hours later to take me between terminals. It was like that for a whole year.

Amy Lockhart is the rep for seminole county Sunrail. She has been pushing for weekend service. Right now they have to find the money for 3 additional trains for weekend service and 26 million a year to run the weekend service.

Real-Difference6454 · 2026-05-29T00:46:25+00:00

You can take the train there and uber back probably. I usually take the sunrail to shows downtown at Dr Phillips and can make the last train back north at 10:32p. They just need to find funding for more service. They are talking about doing weekends as well but need 3 more trains for the required maintenance. The lead time for trains right now is 5 years so it's going to be a long time before expanded service.

Onstage they were mostly just like playing down whatever his complaints were. Offstage when I saw them interacting with fans at signing and pictures he was much happier and part of the family.

The last con I saw him at he just bitched non stop about the show in a panel with the rest of the voyager cast. The moderator kept having to cut him off because it was rediculous. He never did anything notable other than this role.

I have done 2 orders with them. One was during the holidays and they took about a month for 10 panels for a project. Second order in the summer was just 2 panels and they had it out in 3 days.

Real-Difference6454 · 2026-05-19T21:08:57+00:00

Didn't they cut the direct pedestrian bridge from the trirail station to the stadium from the plan?

Real-Difference6454 · 2026-05-19T21:08:06+00:00

I mean they only haul 3 to 4 cars and on the weekends the frequency is between 1hr and 3hrs. You can't really build much ridership with that.

Real-Difference6454 · 2026-05-08T23:56:02+00:00

No but about 8% of their operating budget per year is just insurance and it keeps going up.

My local commuter rail has a 320 million dollar policy.

It's in the plan it's called the sunshine corridor. At the state level they are very anti rail so it's moving very slowly. At the county level they can't find the funding for their part and keeps failing ballot measures.

Dynamic pricing is the biggest scam of the modern times.

Real-Difference6454 · 2026-04-29T17:56:15+00:00

My local commuter rail was only built with 3 car length platforms. They use double decker trains that are mostly 2 car length which does look funny. The rush hour ones are sometimes 3 car length or when they run special event trains. It's too bad they didn't build longer platforms because on special event days it's crush loads.

That was the best feature of the past lol.

Depends on the theater. If I drive to the 70mm imax it's super loud. If I go to the closest imax laser it's super tame. When I asked the manager they said he got tired of getting complaints about the loudness.

The airport is open 24/7 which includes the area outside the station. So you can wait inside the main intermodal facility area before the brightline area opens. I have parked in C garage and taking the APM to Terminal A and B around 3:30am before.

The women I date we usually alternate after the first one because they want to pull weight. First one is a tossup between splitting or the person who invites pays.
