Getting to Birmingham Quickly

[Deleted member 18243]

Doesn't it take ages to get from London to Birmingham on the train? It has always annoyed me. If only it was 20 minutes quicker.

I'd be happy to pay a bit more!

I reckon I'm not alone in thinking this, there must be loads more folk want the London to Birmingham rail time cut by 20 mins. Something ought to be done.

Another £100bn and 15 years, you'll have HS2.
Or maybe MS 1½

Shouldnt the title read:

"Getting away from Birmingham as quickly as possible!"

Move BHM 20 minutes down the line in a Southerly direction?

Get an earlier train?
I'd rather get somewhere earlier then find somewhere to have a coffee than be rushing around as soon as I got off the train/bus.

It all read as satire, to me.
I mean; an extra 20 minutes in Brum: why would you?

You need a really big catapult.
Test it with dead cats first, safety first and all that..

Or the quicker you can get out of Londonstan the better
