[quote=Anonymous]Ten minutes because you have a kid. Without a kid, five minutes. Plan to be dropped off (if you’re not coming by metro), and plan for traffic around the station. It’s a little different than metro because they use both tracks for both directions, depending on traffic. They won’t announce which track the train is coming on until right before it arrives so pay attention to the announcements, because you might need to switch sides. That time of morning, the rails will be busy because you have a bunch of Amtrak plus freight plus commuter trains coming through the area, so expect a delay and be pleasantly surprised if there isn’t one. And yes, you will stop at Union Station to change the locomotive. They will shut the power down in the cars while they make the change, so it will get dark and a little bit hot.[/quote]
