Venice to Manarola on train

We will be taking the trains from Venice to Manarola with minimal time between connections. I was made aware that if you miss a regional train connection that you have a four hour window to get on another regional train. The last train though that we will be taking is the Cinque Terre Express, not a regional train, from La Spezia to Manarola. Just wondering if the Cinque Terre Express also runs like the regional trains on allowing you to catch another train if you miss your connection. If not, then maybe we should just book our trip to La Spezia and then get a ticket in La Spezia to go to Manarola????

The Cinque Terre Express is just a fancy name for the regional trains that run back and forth between La Spezia and Levanto every 30 minutes, stopping at all 5 towns.

The Cinque Terre Express is an ordinary Regional train with a shorter route and a fancier name (for tourist recognition, I guess).
