Brightline recently hosted USDOT Deputy Secretary of Transportation Polly Trottenberg.

Deputy Secretary Trottenberg traveled along Brightline’s South Florida route visiting MiamiCentral station, among others, accompanied by Brightline’s president Patrick Goddard.

The tour featured insight into Brightline’s multi-billion-dollar investment in Florida with a visit to Brightline’s operations control center, where the operations team monitors and oversees trains along the 235-mile-long corridor, communicates with dispatch, and closely monitors inbound calls from guests through the Help Center.

The deputy secretary also got a first-hand briefing on Brightline’s Notch 8 conductor training program, a 14-week intensive course offered to Brightline Teammates interested in developing the skills required to become an essential part of the transportation team – a conductor with Brightline.

Brightline seamlessly connects travelers to top destinations and major events between Central and South Florida. The company serves Miami, Aventura, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, and Orlando. Brightline offers a guest-first experience designed to reinvent train travel and take cars off the road.

The company plans to bring its award-winning service to additional city pairs and congested corridors across the country that are too close to fly and too long to drive, with immediate plans to connect Las Vegas to Southern California. For more information, visit www.gobrightline.com.
