- How far it really runs

- Where the change is
- Connections are made at Floriano, Petrolina, Salgueiro, Luis Eduardo Magalhães. The gap between arriving and leaving is 53 minutes, of which about 5 is walking.
- If the connection is missed
- The tightest connection we sell here has a 18 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
