) is a 21-mile-long heavy-rail
system that has one elevated line running from Hialeah through downtown Miami and
south to Kendall/Dadeland. Trains run every five to 15 minutes from 6am to midnight.
The fare is $2, or $1 with a Metromover transfer.
The regional Tri-Rail double-decker commuter trains run the 71 miles between Dade,
Broward and Palm Beach counties. Fares are calculated on a zone basis; the shortest dis-
tance traveled costs $4.40 round-trip; the most you'll ever pay is for the ride between MIA
and West Palm Beach ($11.55 round-trip). No tickets are sold on the train, so allow time to
make your purchase before boarding. All trains and stations are accessible to riders with
disabilities. For a list of stations, log on to the Tri-Rail website.
