Great stuff and I am heading to Kent from Birmingham in July so will be definitely booking Chiltern for the first leg to London. 😀

Thanks fir watching - appreciated.

[@raymondgravelle3931]

That was a bit of an eye opener!! I never heard of that Birmingham station!!

[@TheGeordieTravels]

I love travelling on Chiltern railways. always a pleasure. I sometimes go up to Birmingham moor st station just for a day out . I leave from stoke mandeville station and sometimes have 3 changes to get the train from haddenham and Thame parkway to Birmingham. never have to wait long for a connection. lovely modern trains , always spotless and clean, very comfortable.
I’m getting to like Birmingham,
yes I’m a great CR fan. Love it .

That's my main route to London. We get on at Warwick Parkway. It's normally £30 return for an adult and 2 children and often includes unlimited tube and bus travel around London too.

Nice one! I'm bobbing down to brum on Thursday, and going to do the (hopefully) 68 to Leamington on the 11.45

Thanks for watching mate, appreciated as always

[@mikegreig3338]

I enjoy your videos, just a small thing it would be nice if you added a station tour at each end, otherwise great thanks

[@TheGeordieTravels]

hi thanks for watching - I can certainly add that in future vids.

[@AL-zg5qs]

My preferred route down to London. Avoids the ghastly Euston and it's a prettier route through the leafy Chilterns.

[@alexmcwhirter6611]

Thanks for the video. Chiltern is a worthwhile alternative to Avanti on its Euston to Birmingham NS service ... it's usually less expensive too.

thanks fir watching - appreciated.

Shame they stop the catering… I think it happened during Covid

[@markcollinson5665]

Bicester is actually pronounced as "Bister", oddly enough.

[@richardmonnick1908]

Like Leicester.

Hi mate, thanks for watching, appreciated. I did make a mental note but completely forgot about it when editing - doh.
