A gas turbine engine includes a compressor section rotatable about an axis, a combustor in fluid communication with the compressor section, and a turbine section in fluid communication with the combustor. The turbine section includes a vane assembly including a radially outer platform with respect to the axis. A first airfoil extend from the radially outer platform to a radially inner platform. A rail extends radially inward from the inner platform, and a connected passage includes an airfoil passage within the first airfoil. A platform passage is located within the inner platform, and a rail passage is located within the rail. The airfoil passage, the platform passage, and the rail passage are fluidly connected.
