    Interesting, 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.

      yeah 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.
