If there is one thing that is synonymous with Disney it’s trains and now you can take a train straight to Disney World.
Brightline and Walt Disney World Resort announced Monday that they have entered into an agreement to build a train station at Disney Springs.
With this station, there will be a convenient travel option between Walt Disney World Resort, the Orlando International Airport and several stops in South Florida.
The station at Disney Springs will include a lobby on the ground level, passenger facilities and an upper-level train platform. It will reportedly be close to Walt Disney World Resort’s four theme parks, two water parks and more than 25 hotels. An exact location has not been disclosed.
Brightline currently has stops in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. It will eventually connect South Florida to Orlando and Tampa.
“We’re excited to work with Brightline as they pursue the potential development of a train station at Walt Disney World Resort, a project that would support our local economy and offer a bold, forward-looking transportation solution for our community and guests,” Walt Disney World president Jeff Vahle said.
Other future South Florida stops include Boca Raton, Aventura and PortMiami.
Brightline, which suspended operations in March because of the coronavirus pandemic, is on track to complete its expansion to Orlando International Airport in 2022.
