David,
Here is a High altitude chart of the leg CRL to JHW. [ vfrmap.com ]
I don't know why the various headings since the intersections are on the Jet airway.
The routing you talk about is J554, CRL to JHW.
You leave CRL on the 089 degree radial and fly
east to the X which
is the changeover point (I put a yellow circle around it).
This is the place you change from CRL to JHW.
The changeover point is not always the mid point
for many reasons such as VOR power and signal
because of its location, etc.
You will also see the two intersections are along J554.
COHOW is 71 DME from the JHW VOR and SURLY is 59 DME from JHW.
Example: COHOW is the 276 degree radial of JHW, but you would
place 096 in the OBS to fly TO the station.
The total mileage from CRL to JHW is 194 (Red Box).
If you add up each segment that is the total mileage.
