Riding the Rails: Scheduling Stopovers Smartly

From the creator

When your route requires changing trains, be ready to hop off upon arrival at the transfer point. An organized traveler can get through a small station in five minutes, but allow 15 minutes in larger city stations. The Deutsche Bahn's train schedules assume you want fast connections but allow you to request longer layovers for more peace of mind. Train stations are also major bus stops, so connections from train to bus are generally no more difficult than crossing the street.
