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!

What time does your train get in Jim?  Mine arrives about 12.45.

you can get a train from birmingham international to walsall for about £4. a free monorail will take you from the airport to the station. trains are every 30 mins.

timetables here...  http://www.centro.org.uk/Rail%20Network/trains/Timetables/Coventry/Northampton-Bham%20June%2006%20.pdf

t.o.a are birminghams official black cabs. they are metered, clean and reliable. their number 0121 427 8888

brookfleet are my preferred private hire, as honest as you will find. their number 0121 559 8585
