ORLANDO — Central Florida's commuter rail line will soon cater to a new crowd.

SunRail will begin running on Saturday afternoons and evenings starting Oct. 8 as part of a pilot program, giving Central Florida residents easier access to Orlando sporting events, concerts and festivals, Orlando mayor Buddy Dyer told reporters Thursday morning.

“This benefits Orlando, but not us,” said Volusia County Councilman Pat Patterson, adding that anyone who takes the train to DeBary on a Saturday won’t have anywhere to go since Votran bus services don’t operate during the weekend.
I hate to tell him this, but I'm pretty sure the idea isn't to bring people to DeBary, it's to let people from DeBary go elsewhere.
