A CONNECTION describes the physical (spatial) possibility for a passenger to change from one public transport vehicle to another to continue their trip, as determined by two SCHEDULED STOP POINTs. Different times may be necessary to cover the link between these points, depending on the kind of passenger (e.g. if they have impaired mobility). These times are inherited from TRANSFER.
