It is not only +Chiltern Railways who like to hide their light under a bushel. Since the December timetable change, +London Midland have offered a faster off-peak service* from Birmingham New Street to London Euston for those who are prepared to change at Rugby. However, twice recently, I have made this journey connection successfully yet have found my fellow passengers blissfully unaware of the time saving to be made.
This is doubly strange as the great value LM advance tickets can be booked to use this connection so there is no difference in cost (£16 advance first for my trips). So LM be pro-active and save your passengers 20 minutes on their journey times (and give them the chance to get a coffee at Rugby too!).
* the services south are those departing from New Street at 54 mins past the hour from 08.54 through to 18.54 (11 services). Heading north, departure from Euston is at 46 mins past the hour from 08.46 through to 14.46 (7 services)
