The train from to Miami has been quoted and attempted over and over since I was about 7 growing up in the greater Orlando area. 28 years later and it's still in talks. They tried to connect Tampa to Daytona through Orlando. (All they needed to do was follow I4 as the road already goes there.). This is as far as that has gotten: (15 years on that alone)
Yeah, and the problem isn't the trains, it's the politics, and ultimately the voters.
The train would make things better, and we could build it, but the will to do so isn't there.
no one wants to be unfairly compensated for the land the government takes from them, the us just has laws that allow the landowners to turn it into a lengthy court battle
