First of all, "Any Permitted" printed on a ticket does not mean that any conceivable route is permitted; instead it means that you can travel by any route which is a permitted route.
What is a permitted route, you may ask?
The National Rail Conditions of Travel states:
13.1. Your Ticket may show that it is valid only on certain train services, such as

Your understanding is 100% correct (can't write anything more than that)
If going back the same way, however, you'll clear US immigration in Seattle, then collect and re-check your luggage at the designated counter after customs.

(this post assumes you are on a regular rail ticket that is not route or operator restricted, oyster/"contactless" has it's own rules, which may be more or less restrictive than a regular rail ticket)
Can I use any route to get to my destination on national rail?
No, you can't just take any route.

Generally an airline is responsible for your connection between flights issued on a single ticket. Airports have a minimum connection time which limits how short a connection is allowed when ticketing. That time sometimes depends on factors like terminal changes but is in my opinion highly optimistic.
When you buy from a third-party agent you are not always ...

After flying this itinerary, I can narrate my experience for any future travellers along this route. The answer given by @hilmar is more or less accurate. Please note that if you happen to choose this itinerary with Singapore Airlines, then you need to arrange for your own transport between airports along with your check-in luggage. I am talking ...

If you're travelling on one ticket then your checked baggages will be forwarded directly by the airlines. Thus you'll be transiting airside and won't have to clear immigration or customs. So there'll be no immigration stamps on your passport unless you plan to leave the airport and go visit Bangkok.

Cochin airport does not currently have an airside transit facility; everyone who arrives from outside India must clear immigration and customs before going to their next flight. This means that you will require a visa to enter India.
You can obtain a transit visa which allows you to enter India for up to 3 days. You will be able to leave the airport with ...

Yes, you need it as you have transit more than 19 hours
All the passengers holding Pakistani, Nepalese, Bangladeshi or Sri Lankan passport traveling via Thailand with transit over 12 hours in Bangkok are now required to get transit visa prior to travel. They may be denied boarding if they don't get a visa prior to travel.
However, the layover in Bangkok is ...

When you buy a ticket from an airline they are on the hook for getting to your destination. So they will not sell tickets with impossible connections. Every airport has a minimum connection time, and for some airports that can indeed be as low as 30 minutes.
In Europe competition between airlines is fierce. And for example when Lufthansa offers a ZRH-MUC-...

According to several threads posted by past users of the airport, they all indicate that they did have to go through customs and that there was not an air side transfer option. So you will have to go through immigration, then baggage collection, then back through security to check in again.
By looking at the site map on the official airport website it also ...

You can obtain the 96 hour transit visa in advance through your UAE-based airline. If you have booked with Emirates, you can apply for it online by going to Manage your booking. Etihad has a dedicated web page for visas. If you booked with flydubai, you can apply for it at the nearest flydubai travel shop which provides the service. They do not have online ...

As a rule railway companies do not allow you to overshoot your station and return to it, although you often do not have to pay extra if you find out that your train did not stop where you expected it and you need to return to that station. They may charge you with an 'traveling without ticket'.
(Added after reading the other answers:) It turns out that in ...

"Reasonable" in this context means that it makes sense to transit the UK on your given itinerary.
For instance, transiting the UK between Dubai and the US is a little odd given the large number of direct flights, but it could be reasonable if you found cheap tickets.
An unreasonable journey would be one in which transiting the UK makes no sense at all, ...

Unlike in most countries, Russian airports have transit passport control between the transfer desk and security. However, since you're only in transit, nothing will happen. They're not going to arrest a non-CIS national over a civil case. If the officer knows English (which most don't) they may remind you of your outstanding fine, but that's it.
So you'll ...

There's no prohibition on transiting through the UAE with alcohol; non-Muslim visitors can even bring in 4 liters past customs. It's even sold on board your Etihad flight and in the duty free in Abu Dhabi.

If your flights are on one ticket, United thinks you can easily make it, so don't worry - after all it is their problem to get you connected, and if you miss your connection, they have to pay for your hotel, transporatation, and food in EWR.
From experience, the international flight will also wait for some connections if they are late.

You don't need a Brazil transit visa as long as you have an onward ticket and remain in the designated transit area (for a maximum of 7 hours). However, if you want to leave the airport you need a visa unless you are from a visa exempt country.
Nigeria is not a exempt country and therefore if you want to visit the country, you will need a visa.

You don't need a visa if you stay in the international transit area. But in order to collect baggage and check it in to a separate flight, you must go through immigration and customs to enter Turkey, then collect your bag and check it in with the next airline, then go through immigration again to exit Turkey. This is how the process works nearly everywhere ...
