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.
