Floridian Amtrak trains currently travel between Chicago and Florida. This is a temporary route until approximately 2027.
Things to Know
- Silver Meteor trains also travel to Florida, but from New York City and other East Coast cities.
- Only the Floridian stops in Tampa, but otherwise most other Florida stops are the same as the Silver Meteor.
- Going to the Florida panhandle from Chicago? Take the City of New Orleans route to New Orleans instead of going to the East Coast. You can rent a car and reach Pensacola in three hours. Greyhound buses in New Orleans also travel to Florida.
