![Exterior view of the Wilcox Building on the southeast corner of Spring Street and 2nd Street, ca.1905 Photograph of the exterior facades of the Wilcox Building, located in Downtown Los Angeles, on the southeast corner of 2nd Street (left, eastbound) and Spring Street (right, southbound) ca.1905. The building stands five-stories tall (plus basement). The roof has a concrete balustrade and a flagpole. There are two narrow balconies visible, one on the corner (center), and one on the right side of the building above the large arched Spring Street entrance. The streets are bustling with pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Horse drawn carriages and streetcars can be seen on the streets. The bell tower of Saint Vibiana's Cathedral can be seen at left.

The Wilcox Building was designed by the San Francisco firm of Pissis & Moore, with a Classical Revival facade of grey sandstone. Completed in 1896. The Bryson Block and Hollenbeck Hotel were "more flamboyant neighbors." After extensive damage during the Sylmar Earthquake in 1971, its upper four stories were demolished, leaving only the basement and the unrecognizable stripped facade of the ground floor.

The route
What the journey looks like
Direct or connecting, how far the route really runs, and what happens when a connection is missed.
- Direct or connecting
- 20% of the services we sell on this corridor run through without a change. The remaining 80% involve one connection.
- How far it really runs
- The route covers 151 km against 144 km in a straight line, a detour of 5 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.
- Where the change is
- Connections are made at Southampton, Slough, Cowes, Gosport. The gap between arriving and leaving is 55 minutes, of which about 14 is walking.
- If the connection is missed
- The tightest connection we sell here has a 17 percent chance of not being made on the timetable alone. Part of this journey is a self transfer between separate tickets, so leave more time than the minimum and expect to check in again.
Who runs this route
The ferry gets in hours before any room is ready. Holding a bag is not what we sell.

20 percent of the services we sell from Richmond to Poole are direct. The rest connect at Southampton, Slough, Cowes, Gosport, with about 55 minutes between the two services. Both legs are sold on one booking, so a missed connection is rebooked at no charge.

Can I change or refund a ticket from Richmond to Poole?

Where these numbers come from
Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance on this page are real and come from open data. Where a corridor has a filed timetable the departure times are real too, and ferry fares are the prices the operators publish themselves.
Derived from service area No carrier record names this exact pair. The operators listed publish a service area covering both places at a distance their mode plausibly carries people, which is evidence that the corridor is served and not evidence of a specific service. Pages state which, because presenting the two as the same thing would be dishonest.
Where no operator publishes a fare for a corridor, the price here is our own estimate, worked out from the real distance and the real operator through a fare curve that follows lead time, day of the week and season. It tells you roughly what the journey costs. It is not a seat anyone has agreed to sell, and the payment step will not take it.
