TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"When choosing between LNR departures, check the calling points instead of assuming trains on the same route will take the same time. Services can have different stopping patterns, so a departure that leaves later may still offer a quicker overall journey. This is useful on longer trips where a few additional stops can add significant time."
"Birmingham New Street is one of the main interchange points on the network, so leave enough time for a connection. If your timetable is flexible, travelling outside the busiest commuter periods can also make it easier to find a seat, especially on trains serving London Euston."
