minus-squareevidences@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·17 hours agoInteresting, the stuff I usually look at for examples is Midwest areas. For instance Cleveland to New York city is around a 7 and to 8 hour drive but Amtrak schedules it at 13 hours and I guarantee that route will have a delay.
minus-squaredadarobot@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·16 hours agoyeah that tracks. delays are common, and it tends to be a little under twice the drive time. i wouldnt call it convenient travel, but for my ride its definitely cheaper than driving or flying.
