I don’t really know anything about High Speed Rail Alliance, but this is there little More Of This Please page about Brightline. They list all the great things about it, but conspicuously do NOT mention the parking garages, the monthly parking passes, or the rental car agency in the parking garages open during the hours of service. Brightline interconnects well with Miami Airport (also not mentioned) and local commuter rail options as well, but still has its own parking garage and its own rental car operation (even tho this would probably be one of the easiest opportunities to mooch off the airport one). In Orlando, it _does_ mooch off the airport’s garages and rental car operations.
I’m increasingly convinced that planners, advocates and other policy types around rail really have absolutely no clue how much they are harming their own cause by being so opposed to private vehicle connectivity to rail.
Hilariously, the HSRA page has the Brightline picture displaying a bike hanging in a passenger car. They banned bikes sytem-wide last September.
