Florida: Brightline to Resume Service in November

Train operating company Brightline has announced that it will resume service in Florida in the first half of November 2021.

These services will run between Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. The announcement was made as part of a media update by the company’s president Patrick Goddard. Other announcements included new construction, infrastructure investment and the implementation of a recruitment plan for 200 new employees, a necessary step for when Brightline resumes passenger services.

No specific date for service resumption has yet been set. Brightline and the Florida East Coast Railway are working with the Federal Railroad Administration to commission the positive train control (PTC) system and obtain system certification. Once this is in place, Brightline can start running passenger services again.
