Curious what times for upgrade are looking like.

depends… currently re-arranging prerequisites for captain eligibility, so take this with a grain of salt. Typically you need a few recommendations from current captains, then you can be “left seat authorized” if you meet TT and time in type requirements you can upgrade. Aside from having a firm grasp on general captain responsibilities you need to know the company procedures and paperwork responsibilities fairly well. I’ve seen anywhere from direct entry(with time in type and similar 135 experience) to 6-18 months. Likely one of the quicker upgrades you’ll find. B727 correct me if I’m wrong.
