Stuck waiting for train. Looking at the options, one is to just walk!

  1. Better check the live tracker first, you don’t want to encounter extensive delays

  2. It’s because it wants you to catch a train from Snow Hill instead of New Street, which is a valid walking interchange between the two stations

    It’s less than a ten minute walk, so no biggie.

  3. Oh come on! It’s 41 miles dude, that’s only a 15hr stroll. Fucks wrong with you?! /s

  4. Shame you have to wait until 22:45 before you’re allowed to start walking…

  5. I would quite happily walk for 10 hours to save £14.

  6. I’m intrigued that the 10hr 41min walk includes two changes – where would you need to change, and what sort of thing would you have to do?

  7. With the bus caps I do to Worcester and then bus for that journey. It’s just a bit more flexible. 

  8. That’s travel to Hereford for you. We do like to deter strangers.

  9. Almost 11 hours walking, is Ledbury close to Mount Doom?

  10. I had this option looking at New street to Worcestershire Parkway the other day. Thought it was a bit odd then.

  11. Sometimes my walk home from work is about eight hours lol 😬

  12. I suppose it saves having to give the train drivers another pay increase

  13. Just under 11 hrs. Get walking, ya coward!!

    (genuinely curious what the ‘2 changes’ are while walking?)

  14. Love that the last train out of Birmingham that way is at 9:20 on a Saturday night 😐 just in case anyone in Birmingham wonders why their bar or restaurant is quieter than it used to be a few years ago

  15. 14.60 for a 69 minute train journey? Is that like some crazy on-peak fare? Just wondering because that’s $32NZD and the longest local train ride where I am is about the same length for about $12NZD on-peak.
