Good news for spectators travelling to England versus India in the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, on Sunday 30 June, as two new rail services have been implemented following discussions with Edgbaston’s city stakeholders and the tournament delivery team.

London-based spectators can now travel to Birmingham from either of the following two services:

  • 7.30am Chiltern Railways from London Marylebone arriving at Birmingham Moor Street at 9.07am
  • 7.41am Virgin Trains from London Euston arriving at Birmingham New Street at 9.57am

Upon arrival in Birmingham City Centre, spectators can make the short journey across to Edgbaston on the official Shuttle Buses that are operated by National Express from near New Street Station (outside TK Maxx on Smallbrook Queensway).
