Title: Taxi From Train Station ----> Quality Hotel? Post by: Jim-D on September 05, 2006, 08:00:36 PM My train is due in at Walsall some time after 12 on the saturday, Is anyone arriving at this station and looking for a taxi and would like to share?
Title: Re: Taxi From Train Station ----> Quality Hotel? Post by: Royal Flush on September 05, 2006, 08:20:56 PM Just a reminder to anyone who is taking the train there is NO taxi rank at Walsall station, get a taxi number of the net before you leave!
I found out during the winter festival when i was trying to track down a taxi in the wind/rain/snow! Title: Re: Taxi From Train Station ----> Quality Hotel? Post by: Jim-D on September 05, 2006, 08:24:29 PM Thanks for that mate.

If so how many seater as not sure how manys coming with you Yep, that should be fine - give me time for a quick ciggie! Doesn't look like anyone is travelling up with me, so unless there are others coming in around that time who want to share as well a normal taxi will be fine.
