More space, more fun and now more affordable – the Auto Train was made for both the kids raring to go and the parents who need to keep up with them.

With no need to stop for gas, traffic or bathroom breaks, enjoy a smooth nonstop ride between Lorton, VA (near Washington, DC) and Sanford, FL (near Orlando). We’ll take care of the rest.
