How much time does it take now?
As far as I can tell from Google, the fastest route at the moment is about 9 hours. Not a huge difference, but still more than 10 percent faster.
To my knowledge this is with 10min connection mid way. This is a big risk to be stuck in the middle waiting for the next train so the big new here is the direct part, making it way more reliable.
