Connections
Birmingham Snow Hill and Birmingham Moor Street are connected by a tunnel which is located beneath Birmingham city centre. There are frequent train services between the two stations. Birmingham New Street is not connected to Snow Hill or Moor Street by rail, but is approximately a half mile walk from Snow Hill and a quarter mile walk from Moor Street. Rail passengers connecting between New Street and services on the Snow Hill/Moor Street route are generally advised to make their connection via Moor Street.
There are currently no direct bus connections between the three stations, but expansion plans for Midland Metro City Centre line will see the Metro extended from its current terminus at Snow Hill to a new terminus at New Street, meaning a regular tram connection will exist between the two stations.
Birmingham New street and Moor Street are close to the major shopping centres in the city including The Pallasades, Birmingham Bullring and The Paviilions.
All three stations have a good interchange with bus services mostly operated by Travel West Midlands.

Famous quotes containing the word connections:
“The conclusion suggested by these arguments might be called the paradox of theorizing. It asserts that if the terms and the general principles of a scientific theory serve their purpose, i. e., if they establish the definite connections among observable phenomena, then they can be dispensed with since any chain of laws and interpretive statements establishing such a connection should then be replaceable by a law which directly links observational antecedents to observational consequents.”
—C.G. (Carl Gustav)
“A foreign minister, I will maintain it, can never be a good man of business if he is not an agreeable man of pleasure too. Half his business is done by the help of his pleasures: his views are carried on, and perhaps best, and most unsuspectedly, at balls, suppers, assemblies, and parties of pleasure; by intrigues with women, and connections insensibly formed with men, at those unguarded hours of amusement.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“The connections between and among women are the most feared, the most problematic, and the most potentially transforming force on the planet.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
