Answer 2

Hard to believe, but it's going to be about 9 hours, with at least 1 if not 2 changes along the way.

The train isn't that much better - about 5 hours, again with changes along the way.

Answer 3

Depends who you travel with and where from-the estimates are anywhere between 7 hours up to 9 hrs 40 mins.

Answer 4

38 minutes?

in fact no, probably more like 26 and a half hours...can't be too sure these days, what with inflation and what not.
