Connections

Tickets marked as BIRMINGHAM STNS may be used to exit the railway network at any of the three city stations, as stated above Birmingham International is not part of the station group. All three city centre stations are less than a mile from each other, with the shortest distance being between Moor Street and New Street. Birmingham New Street is a half mile walk from Snow Hill[7] and a quarter mile walk from Moor Street.[8]

A direct and regular train service is in operation between Moor Street and Snow Hill through a tunnel, and since mid-2016 the Midland Metro provides a link between Snow Hill and New Street.[9]

Birmingham New Street and Moor Street are close to the major shopping centres in the city including Grand Central (formerly known as The Pallasades) and the Bullring. All three stations have a good interchange with bus services mostly operated by National Express West Midlands.[10][11][12]
