We were delighted to chat with Congresswoman Corrine Brown
Tuesday in Orlando at SunRail’s Lynx Central Station. Congresswoman Corrine
Brown was instrumental in getting the federal dollars to build SunRail.
She was delighted to see the train fare is very reasonable
and happy to see people waiting at the station.
However, Congresswoman Brown can’t understand why each
station only one ticket machine that takes cash. She said everybody – especially
poor people – does NOT have a debit or credit card. She also noted that some
people are reluctant to use their cards in vending machines because they fear
getting their bank accounts hacked.
This is a problem that we’ve noted before, but the SunRail
bosses don’t care. We don’t understand why the managers refuse to make it
easier for people to use the train.
You would at least think the cash machine at LYNX would be on the transfer side, where the SunRail southbound platform directly connects to the bus station. Why would they put it on the other side??
