Thanks. That is the kind of info that I was seeking, about likelihood of making connections. Note my reply to Mr.Ed, however.\, about putting in specific times.

Thanks, but if I do that, it schedules me leaving SPG at 6:25 a.m., and connecting with the Silver Star which goes to Tampa and then backtracks to Winter Haven, not what I want. If I put 7 a.m. departure, it ignores earlier trains and schedules me as mentioned earlier.

I'm a long time rail enthusiast, but haven't ridden in years. I'm planning a trip to FL in January, and have found that the online reservation system forces some close connections, and won't allow alternatives. Bearing in mind that Amtrak trains are frequently late, I'm nervous about this, but...

How can you determine if a connection is guaranteed? Ids this info printed somewhere in the timetables?

I'm an interested possible rider, but new to these forums. I've read several referneces to "low bucket rooms." Apparently they are desirable. What does this mean?
