How long is a train ride from Oklahoma city to New York?

Approximately 2 days ... there are no straight-through Amtrak trains for that route, so you'd need to use connecting service on a total of 4 different train routes. You would begin in Oklahoma City, the transfer to another train in Fort Worth, Texas, then third train in Chicago, Illinois and a fourth train in Pittsburgh, PA before finally pulling into Penn Station in New York City.

If you started in Oklahoma City around 8am on a Monday, you'd arrive in New York City approximately 5pm on Wednesday.

How do you get to Cruise terminal from Penn station?

Yes, you can. Follow Clinton Wharf from the Cruise Terminal until it curves north and becomes Bowne Street. Follow Bowne Street until it intersects with Van Brunt Street (next block after Imlay Street).

Turn left onto Van Brunt Street, and walk 3 blocks north on Van Brunt to Carroll Street.

Turn right onto Carroll Street, and walk east on Carroll Street (in the same direction as traffic) to Smith Street.

The Carroll Street subway station is at the intersection of Carroll and Smith Streets. Take the Uptown (Manhattan-bound) F train (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line) from Carroll Street to West 4th Street in Manhattan.

Transfer at West 4th Street to the Uptown A-C-E (the blue line), and take the A, C or E from West 4th Street to 34th Street-Penn Station.

What subway do you take from Penn Station to get to East Houston Street?

You can take the Uptown E train (of the A-C-E, the blue line) from 34th Street-Penn Station to 53rd Street-Lexington Avenue. Transfer is available from this station to the 51st Street Station on the 6 train (of the 4-5-6, the dark green line). Walk through the tunnel that connects the two stations, and take the Uptown 6 to 68th Street-Hunter College (at Lexington Avenue).

There's another route that requires less walking, but requires you to go Downtown and then back Uptown: take the Downtown A, C or E from 34th Street-Penn Station to West 4th Street. Transfer at West 4th Street to the Uptown F (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line) and take the F to 63rd Street-Lexington Avenue.

What is the length of a train?

A typical CSX double-stack container train carries 280 containers. Each railcar is 80 feet chafing plate to chafing plate. (there are multiple car configurations but the overall length is typical.) As a result, 140 cars at 80 feet is 2.12 miles. CSX locomotives, type AC4400CW, are approximately 78 feet long, and CSX will use a 4 engine lash up.

So, this train will be a bit less than 2 and a quarter miles long. Most railroads will limit train lengths to less than passing sidings on their main lines. These vary from 1 mile to about 2 and one half mile on much of the Union Pacific lines (including the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific acquired lines.
