^Some are of the belief that he advised killing HSR between Tampa and Orlando for the benefit of the rail project proposed by the railroad company he was also getting a check from.

Any news about Tri-Rail expansion lately? Did they extend service to Jupiter or Stuart?
Here is the press release from Tri-Rail. http://www.miamitodaynews.com/2014/0...commuter-rail/ |
so the Ft Lauderdale station looks like the Miami station just smaller.
I like the angle triangle stuff and all the glass. ANY NEWS ON THE WAVE TRAIN. where is the skyscraper page for info on the wave train. |

Additionally, I would like to point out that neither the FHSR project nor AAF plan to go to Jacksonville soon. |
Quote:
And I wouldn't make any bets about AAF not planning to go to Jacksonville soon. It will be sooner than anyone thinks. |

Do you have any evidence about the advisor or governor receiving any illegal payments or illegal favors from FEC or AAF? Now, that would be corruption. |

That is saying a lot. but people with half a brain knew that before he was elected. his election was bad luck on the democrats side. also Jacksonville & Daytona seem like a really good idea people will take the train to Orlando and then fly Out/In its a plus/plus for the airport ANY news on the Orlando Station/Garage? |
Rail's plan means traffic changes ahead

^^^ That is one cool looking station.
I see 1 high-level island platform with two station tracks and - is that a third track I see on the far side? Is that how freight trains are going to get around the high platform? I like that the V's are continuing from the Miami station. I like the branding, and I think this passenger service 'gets' branding better than any other train operators in North America. Also, I know the company name is All Aboard Florida, but I thought the train service would be called something else, as 'I took the All Aboard Florida to Miami the other day' just doesn't work. It would be cool if they named the train service after something beginning with 'V' to go along with their station designs. |
Agreed. For a new rail passenger service that attempts to be at once modern, efficient and effective, the name All Aboard Florida is certainly hokey and gratingly nostalgic.

^Nice...
I always figured they would give the service itself a name in time, and that "All Aboard Florida" was just some retarded name for the construction project. Maybe the "Orange Express" or something. |
What happened the NW 2nd Ave & NW 2nd St? The county bus does not go through on NW 2nd St? Is that no longer?
