I'm a huge Sunrail (and in general, public transit) supporter - I'd take the train down town instead of driving, especially if the drive would involve any rush hour traffic on I4 (confession: a bit of schadenfreude as I mentally wave at cars stuck on the highway as the train rolls along, and/or stopped at a crossing for US - not nice, right?) I occasionally have to use the Maitland station as a stop. With the construction of that new building right next to the station, it can be a bit messy if the wind is blowing, and shutting down the pedestrian walkway on the west side of 17-92 is not people-friendly, but those are temporary. Oh and the complaints about there being no machine that takes credit/debit card on the southbound platform? Those are probably mistaken and at least outdated. Every Sunrail platform has at least two machines, both directions - one or both takes credit/debit cards, but usually only one would take cash. The machines can get finickety until you know just how to work them - basically, with chipped cards, a pretty quick in-out action should do the trick. Happy rails! read more
