The Auto Train is only accessible from its two stations in Lorton, Virginia (approximately 30 minutes from Washington, D.C.) and Sanford, Florida (approximately 30 minutes from Orlando) and departs daily from each station at 4 PM with an arrival of 9 AM the following morning. Instead of being stuck in traffic on I-95, you and your vehicle could get carried away on the Auto Train. Simply pack your car with everything you need for your trip between Lorton, Virginia and Sanford, Florida and leave the driving behind.
