ORLANDO, Fla. – SunRail will soon give commuters more travel options in the evenings. 

The commuter rail is extending its weekday service with two trains running later at night, according to a news release from the Florida Department of Transportation

What we know:

The new schedule will begin Dec. 1 and include two late-night trips—one northbound to DeLand and one southbound to Poinciana. 

According to the schedule on the SunRail website, the last northbound train would leave Poinciana at 9:55 p.m. and arrive in DeLand by 11:36 p.m. The last southbound train for the evening would leave DeLand at 7:55 p.m. and arrive in Poinciana by 9:43 p.m.
