The journey

What the journey actually 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 2,926 km against 2,840 km in a straight line, a detour of 3 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.
Where the change is
Connections are made at Philadelphia, Louisville, Nashville, New York City. The gap between arriving and leaving is 65 minutes, of which about 14 is walking.
If the connection is missed
The tightest connection we sell here has a 15 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.
First and last departure
The first service of the day leaves Boston at 06:08 and the last at 07:30, across 3 departures. The return direction keeps its own timetable, so the times back are not these times reversed.
