Rail and Metro stations can be better, but in South Florida, this is a pinnacle transfer station in a working class area. An efficient enough site where two rail lines cross and can easily be used by both - and resultingly, densifying neighborhood that surrounds it. The staff is usually always very helpful and kind. The main criticism is that the trains don't come frequently enough! As to the actual station, as usual for a Tri-Rail station there's not enough benches... or trash cans. The Metro-side's construction often takes too long and I'm seriously concerned about the accessibility as a result. In addition, there's also so much anxiety if the train is coming and the trains don't run late enough. But it's such a net positive to have rail options (with signage and audio message in three (3!) languages) in this urban-surburban-car-dominated-megaopolis - and I support it fully and want MORE investment in stations like this to make it better - and have two lines cross like this is superb. read more

Last week I stopped by to get a regional pass. I was told that they will sell them starting the 26th. I arrive at 1345 and they are closed. The sign says they are open until 1400. I call customer service and she tells me that it is my fault that I should have shown up earlier. What?!? No apologies. No ownership. Just push the blame. If you want a great job, sign up for them. Where else can you close early and still be paid? read more

On our way from Cypress Creek to Miami downtown, we took the Tri-Rail to the MetroRail Transfer station and switched to the MetroRail. When we got off, there was a nice police/security guard on the platform, who was very nice and helpful with my questions. Since I could not get the MD App to work, I could not get a mobile pass. So I had to wait in line for one of the three ticket vending machines that would issue the magnetic card you will need to pass through the station gates. The vending machine had a default to purchase one way or round trip full fare tickets. I knew I could get an all day pass for $5.65, so I read the instructions carefully and I was able to get the day passes. The station is large as it serves both the TriRail commuter trains and the MetroRail. Large digital displays on the platform of the MetroRail tell you exactly the arrival time of the next MetroRail. Nice and easy ! read more

I started using Tri-Rail in 2015, and I think it's a lot of fun and has its advantages. But recently, I discovered Metrorail and noticed huge differences: stops are terrifically short (doors close in about ten seconds), trains come frequently, and delays rarely happen. You NEED a ticket to board the Metrorail since a machine (total of three) has to scan them. This security measure prevents free rides and is undoubtedly more effective than Tri-Rail's. Tickets are cheaper, too. One-Way tickets are $2.25, and Round-Trip tickets are $5.65. They expire at 2:00 am the following day. So with all that being said, I love using the Metrorail route to get across Downtown Miami! read more

Health hazard if one must use the restroom! Each one was over flowing with human waste. Unusable on the whole OLD train. And it was delayed 15 minutes. I called TriRail on the way and they reported on time. When I arrived minutes later, was announced 15 minutes late. 2 weekends in a row, they are working on tracks, single tracking but they don't tell you this. I'm suffering on the train now and have a long way to go. Hollywood Amtrak office used to be open to use their clean bathrooms and is now locked up. Never again TriRail. read more

For some reason I've always imagined this station to be disconnected from the Tri-Rail station. Why? Cuz you could see the Tri-Rail station from the Metrorail station and they look like a world apart - so how could it even be connected? But truth is, it's connected. No need to ever worry about the sneaky rains. Perfect transfer point to get onto the Tri-Rail/Metrorail. And yes, the area is pretty ghetto, even by Miami's standards. read more

If you need an elevator or escalator for medical purposes regularly do not rely on these places they are constantly broken. Would not say ADA compliant, legally yes because they have alternative transportation but everyday reality too many things are broken. The station is always full of flies no ides why. The only options for food are 4 vending machines. Tri rail should really invest or allow businesses to connect because if you dont have food or drink you are stuck. read more

I took the the Tri Rail for the first time from Golden Glades to Palm Beach and it was A-OK. It is definitely better than driving and the train had WiFi and that was a plus. I planned my trip using their online system that shows the schedule. the trains were on time on both directions of my trip and both have easy access to buses connecting to other destinations including the airports. The parking was OK and and priced right at 5 bucks for a round trip ticket! I would definitely recommend a trip on the Tri-Rail because it was so convenient and priced right. One hint about your trip is use the bathroom before boarding because one bad point about the train are the bathrooms, one word nasty but it is public transportation. read more

This south bound train system sucks. Every morning after 8:08 there appears to be a problem with the train. There are constant announcements that the train is having technical difficulties, this the same stuff every day and there isn't any resolution? Really MDTA!!!!!!! This train is scheduled to run every 5-10 minutes during rush hour but that's not true. Once it leaves the station it has to stop on the track and after it leaves the Northside station it stops again. This is happening daily. Let's get this together. read more

This is where the Tri-Rail ends -- for me, since I am not going to the airport or Hialeah Market. It conveniently meets up with several bus lines and a Miami-Dade Metrorail station. Now, you may ask, "Sal, why would you take the Tri-Rail?" Well, every now and again I like to go to Clematis Street in West Palm Beach. There are some good restaurants there. It is a little walk to the establishments, but considering that is the scant exercise I get I deal with it. I wish I could say that anyone could use the Tri-Rail to visit Clematis for "Clematis at Night" but the Tri-Rail doesn't stay active that late. Oh well, maybe eventually it will; and then eventually it may get a 5-Star review! read more

Hours 5am to midnight? What a bunch of malarkey! The paper schedule is clearly printed of :"10:29" for example. I was informed l missed THE LAST 940pm train.

Weekday.Was SOL in Ft lauderdales windy streets, all motels full no cell battery : ( l had a blast my 1st time, school of hard knocks read more

I guess it's like riding the train anywhere... You have your ghetto people yelling on their phones and the unattentive parents letting their kids run around, but gets you from point A to B right? read more

I like this station the best because it has a direct connection to the Metro Rail...All you have to do is go downstairs and the Tri-Rail is right there. This location is the best alternate route to the Miami Airport. read more

I have traveled to this station similar to Jeff P, but it was before he posted his review. Me and some friends had a few hours to kill on a layover in FLL, and decided to venture to Miami to see if we can take in a few sights before heading back home. I mapped out our route as best as I could to get to Miami. This is a convenient station to make a transfer to the Miami city proper. Give yourself more time than you need when it comes to departure and arrival times. The light rail times weren't accurate and sometimes would run late, which screws you up if you are transferring to another mode of transportation later, i.e. a bus or Tri-Rail or a shuttle someplace else. read more

Took this from Fort Lauderdale Airport station in Dania Beach upon my arrival from the FLL Airport. Trains are similar to the L.A. Metrolink. It's a commuter train. Not super new, but it was in good shape. The station here is a transfer point to the Metro Light Rail. If you're heading towards South Beach, you'll want to take this to the Earlington Heights station. Tip: When I purchased my ticket to this station from Dania Beach, it was $5.00 and it includes your ticket to use on the Metro Light Rail so DON'T BUY an ez-pass to get on the light rail. Upon your arrival, go to the customer service booth and show them your Tri-Rail ticket. They will give you a pass for the Light Rail no questions asked! If you're ever heading to South Beach from Ft. Lauderdale and don't want to spend $80 on a cab ride...follow these instructions! 1. Upon arrival at FLL Airport, head out towards the Ground Transportation outside of Terminal 1 and walk towards the end where it shows "Tri-Rail Shuttle" 2. Hop on the FREE Tri-Rail shuttle to the Tri-Rail and it takes you to the Dania Beach station. 3. Purchase a Tri-rail ticket for $5.00 (yes they do check on the train so don't get caught sneaking on you cheapskates!) to this Tri-rail/Metro Rail Station. 4. Head to the station booth and get your free Ez-Pass to get on the Metro Light Rail. 5. Wait on the SOUTH side and head towards Earlington Heights (3 or 4 stations). 6. Get off at Earlington Heights and head out towards the bus terminal (keep in mind you need your ez-pass to exit the station so don't throw it away). 7. Wait on the far end where it says "Airport Flyer Bus" 8. Hop on the Airport Flyer bus toward "Miami Beach" and pay the $2.35 fee on the bus. 9. Request the bus to stop near your Hotel (there was a stop right outside the W South Beach Hotel so that worked out great). Total Cost: $7.35 Estimated Time: 2-4 hours...depending on if you catch the bus and trains at the right time so check the schedules ahead of time! read more

Pretty much on time and dependable.. The area is not the best, quite a few characters in this location. Just keep to yourself and you will be fine.. Worse case scenario act crazy and you'll fit right in.. read more

The station is located next door to an industrial waste land, but a great connector to get to Downtown Miami.

Horrible service. This train is NEVER on time. It always has problems and there are always issues with accidents and it getting delayed. Do not rely on the tri-rail for work purposes or you are in deep trouble! read more

The station itself is well-designed. Very clear to figure out where you're going, helpful dude at the ticket counter, machines if you know what you're doing, plenty of bench seating and open cover in case of inclement weather, parking, a restaurant if you have time to kill, and consistent updates of your train's track and time arrival details. It was also clean, and there are some vending machines on the Metro side of it. read more

The tri rail prices are so good especially for the ride all day pass. It was very clean and the workers were helpful. Will definitely ride again. read more
