It now takes 50:10 for #5, 53:50 for #6 end-to-end (11/7/11 timetable times, 52:10 and 51:30 real time if I did the math right, a very dubious possibility!). I don't know when or what the CZ's fastest schedules were, but in 1960 these times were 47:40 and 51:00 (49:40 and 49:00) respectively. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 10/27/11 17:13 by lowwater.
