    Finally, after a 28-year wait, Metrorail will reach Miami International Airport starting Saturday.

    Miami-Dade Transit will open the new Orange Line from Dadeland South Station in Kendall to the new airport station at the giant Miami Intermodal Center just east of the airport. It’ll be the first new Metrorail line since the elevated train system opened in 1984.
