   > ... Here in Deepest South Florida we have TriRail.   
      
   I used TriRail to & from   
   FLL (Ft Lauderdale airport) and Boca Raton (Yamato Road)   
   for only $5. Then a $15 Uber to my parents' place.   
   Vs. $100+ for an airport car service.   
   The trains were on time and just fine.   
   Yes, I had to use a connecting bus to the airport (free)   
   but things really did connect.   
      
   > We also have Brightline.   
      
   Sadly, those grade level crossings are in the news often   
   for the gruesome collisions with Darwin Award winners   
   who drive around the gates.
