The Amtrak Auto Train is the only train of its kind in the United States. This unique non-stop service transports passengers and their automobiles along the East Coast. Auto Trains run daily from the Washington, D.C. area to the Orlando area, saving travelers over 900 miles of driving time. The trip is far more comfortable than a road trip, thanks to reclining seats, onboard restrooms, snacks for purchase, and free WiFi. Keep in mind that you are actually required to bring a vehicle (car, truck, or motorcycle) to ride the Auto Train, so check out other Amtrak train lines if you won’t be traveling with your car.
