      I'd rather go anywhere but Birmingham.

        oxford is a pain in the arse to get to from swansea, brum isn't. therefore, brum wins

          Oxford is fairly easy to get to from Swansea. You want to try getting there from Hull, or by then, Grimsby I suspect...

            Swansea to Oxford via Reading takes roughly the same amount of time and requires the same number of changes as Swansea to Birmingham.

                I'm talking about the train. Hence mentioning the number of changes.

                  think that was a cross post mike

                  i'm fairly sure last time i checked that i can get a train straight from swansea to brum, but i have to change to get to (and, more importantly, back from) oxford. but i'll have another look.

                    I just checked. Looks like you have to change at Bristol Parkway. You did used to be able to (I was at uni in Brum, had friends in Swansea and lived in Reading so I'm quite familiar with the triangle.)
