KISSIMMEE, Fla. – SunRail said it will reopen two of its Osceola County stations on Monday after repairing tracks damaged by Hurricane Ian.
The Kissimmee and Poinciana stations were closed after the ground under a section of the railroad track washed away during the hurricane about two weeks ago.

Part of a tree also fell on the tracks.
Commuter rail passengers had to be bused to and from the Kissimmee and Poinciana stations in order to catch the train.
The Florida Department of Transportation said all the repair work is now done, so all 16 stations will operate on a normal schedule, from DeBary to Poinciana.
