If you've ever sat in I-4 traffic on the way to Orlando, the train starts to look pretty good. DeLand is the first stop on the line and parking is free, so on a weekday it's an easy way to get where you're going.

Will SunRail Reach the Orlando Airport or Disney Springs?
Not yet, but the state is studying it. The plan is called the Sunshine Corridor, and it looks at SunRail reaching Orlando International Airport, then the Orange County Convention Center, International Drive and the Disney Springs area, with transfers to Brightline.
It's still in the planning stage. The study is expected to finish in 2027, and at least half of the money would need to come from federal dollars, so there's no date yet for trains. Walt Disney World said in 2024 that it's open to a SunRail station at Disney Springs.

Getting From the DeLand SunRail Station to Downtown DeLand
Most people drive over and park, since the lot is free. If you'd rather leave the car at home, VoRide can take you to or from the station for free, Monday to Friday, 6 am to 9 pm. It's Volusia County's on-demand bus service, run by Votran.
You can book in the VoRide app or call (386) 210-9861, up to a day ahead. If you're coming in on the train, book it while you're still riding so it's waiting when you step off. Uber and Lyft are an option too.
