Brightline conducting high speed tests along SR 528 corridor Check out the images of Brightline's higher-speed train tests held on the newly constructed tracks on the SR 528 corridor. The light at the end of the tunnel linking Miami to Orlando without hitting the highway is on the horizon. Brightline is on schedule to open its Orlando station this year with routes to existing stations in Miami, Aventura, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton and West Palm Beach. And the new 37,350-square-foot station at Orlando International Airport features a three-story contemporary design, retail shopping, a bar with light bites and panoramic views of oncoming trains.
