Yes, it will be true for some people. But try taking a train from

I'm afraid those distances mean nothing to me - how long would it take
if you drove? I loved Amtrak trains when I used them, so I wouldn't
actually mind 2 days, but if it's a case of "going to Birmingham by
way of Bethnal Green", then perhaps not!


Is that Birmingham, Alabama or Birmingham, Warrwickshire?
