Legend

The green vertical bar between the track chart and milepost columns denotes stretches where public roads run next to the tracks and are good for pacing trains. The view of the track might be obstructed by foliage along some stretches, but that's just the way it goes. DRIVE SAFELY! Your photos or videos won't see the Net if you kill yourself and others chasing a train.

Notes

Note 1: 2015.03.29 — SFRTA (South Florida Rapid Transit Authority) took over dispatching the Miami subdivision. CSX still runs the same trains at about the same “schedule” as usual, but the radio frequencies have changed for no apparent reason. See the top of the page for those.

Note 2: 2018.01.10 — A connection turnout has been installed to allow trains on Track #2 to interchange over to Florida East Coast Railway's Southbound Main. A new crossover on F.E.C. allows them to crossover to the Northbound Main and continue to Miami Central station via the south leg of the Little River Wye. On 2024.01.27 full service of the shuttle train between Metrorail Transfer and downtown Miami began operation.

Note 3: 2018.02.08 — The Northwood wye has been fully restored and fully signaled to allow for passenger movements between Tri-Rail and Florida East Coast Ry. For some reason, the industrial track serving Monison Pallets and U & Me has also been signaled, but nobody knows what the plans are for this forgotten siding.
