According to Orlando Business Journal Virgin Trains USA is making quick progress on its planned stop at Walt Disney World.
The Miami-based rail company plans to connect Miami to Orlando, with a potential stop at WDW, and then on to Tampa. The two companies entered into a memorandum of understanding in November and more information has begun to trickle out. This rail line would connect Walt Disney World with two other major cruise ports, one of which (Miami) Disney Cruise Line already offers frequent sailings from. Disney has not yet commented on the rail terminal, and the station is still subject to permitting, lease negotiations with state agencies for right-of-way access and a full agreement with Disney. There is no timeline for when work will begin on the Tampa route.
Personally this thought excites me because of the potential to do a Land/Sea trip with the cruise portion departing from Miami. What do you think about the potential for this upcoming railway?
