==Transportation== [[File:Sebring Train Station from NW.JPG|thumb|left|The [[Sebring station]], served by [[Amtrak]]'s ''[[Silver Meteor]]'' and ''[[Silver Star (Amtrak train)|Silver Star]]'' trains]] [[U.S. Route 27 in Florida|U.S. Route 27]] (cosigned with [[U.S. Route 98 in Florida|U.S. Route 98]] in Sebring) is the major artery providing access to the rest of the state. [[Florida State Road 17|State Road 17]] begins in Sebring and heads north to its terminus in [[Haines City, Florida|Haines City]]. [[Florida State Road 64|State Road 64]] (to the north) and [[Florida State Road 66|State Road 66]] (to the south) are important secondary roads. Sebring is the largest populated area in the country to not be serviced by an Interstate Highway. Like many Florida communities, Sebring contains subdivisions containing streets with thematic continuity. In Sebring Country Estates, many thoroughfares are named after automobile manufacturers or their models, as is evident in [[Peugeot]] Street, [[Ferrari]] Drive, [[Porsche]] Avenue, [[Aston Martin Vantage|Vantage]] Terrace, [[Chevrolet Corvette|Corvette]] Avenue, and [[Ford Thunderbird|Thunderbird]] Road. In Sebring Hills, many streets bear names with an ornithological bent, including [[Egret]] Street, [[Ibis]] Avenue, and [[Woodpecker]] Boulevard. The [https://www.snldistrict.org/ Sun 'n Lake Sebring] development is plotted with streets bearing the same names as those in the city of [[Coral Gables, Florida|Coral Gables]]. [[Sebring Regional Airport]] is located a few miles southeast of the city and provides general aviation facilities for Sebring. The airport is also the home of the [[Sebring International Raceway]], the host of the [[12 Hours of Sebring]], second round of [[WeatherTech SportsCar Championship]] automobile race series, held annually in March. The airport has also hosted the annual US Sport Aviation Expo for eight years. The nearest regularly scheduled passenger service is provided at [[Orlando International Airport]], {{convert|86|mi}} by road to the north. The city is served by [[Amtrak]] from the [[Sebring station]], a depot built in 1924 by the [[Seaboard Air Line]] and listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]]. Amtrak's daily service to Sebring consists of two trains each from the ''[[Silver Meteor]]'' and ''[[Silver Star (Amtrak train)|Silver Star]]'', heading south to [[Miami]] and north to [[Tampa, Florida|Tampa]], [[Orlando, Florida|Orlando]] and [[New York City]]. [[CSX Transportation]] owns the track over which Amtrak operates. The [[South Central Florida Express]] railroad connects to the CSX line in Sebring, allowing transportation of sugar from [[Clewiston, Florida|Clewiston]] to the rest of the country.
