Yes, it’s
true. SunRail will run THIS Sunday (March 5).
This special
train service is being offered to support the first Orlando City Soccer match
at the team’s new stadium on Church Street.

| New stadium |
The match is
scheduled to begin at 5 p.m., but the first SunRail train is set to depart
DeBary at 1:30 p.m. The first northbound train leaves Sand Lake Road at 3 p.m.
The train
will run at hourly intervals until game time. Please note that this service is
being privately funded because much to our regret, SunRail does not usually run
on the weekends.
Though the
service is being privately funded, regular SunRail fares will apply on Sunday,
and it’s advisable that you get to your local train service early because it’s
likely there will be long lines at the automated ticket machines. Best if you
use a debit or credit card because the cash ticket vending can be wonky.
Newbie
riders, please note that the southbound Church Street station is on South
Street.
When you get
off the train, turn right to head toward Church Street. Don’t forget to tap off
with your ticket. There are three ticket validators in the station so if you
see a big line, just go to the next one.
You can get
to Church Street by turning left when you leave the station. Walk down to
Garland Avenue (parallel to Interstate 4) turn right walk one block to Church
Street, pass under the interstate and you’ll see the stadium just a couple of
blocks ahead of you.
Enjoy your
walk. Don’t forget the last northbound SunRail train is scheduled to leave
Church Street at 9:10 p.m.
