I'm sorry I'm a killjoy on this. Unfamiliar with rail travel? Tough. Have what little information we give you garbled.

Currently waiting for the once per week* train at Bordesley, the first stop southbound out of Birmingham Moor Street.
Stopping at all stations sometimes means trips out just to get the awkward ones

TfL has confirmed the opening date of the Silvertown Tunnel.
From 7 April 2025, the tunnel that connects Silvertown to the Greenwich Peninsula will provide Londoners with faster and more reliable journeys and enhanced public transport links.

If I had £1 for every time I had to take an alternative route to work in 2025 because the metropolitan line was suspended, I'd have £2.

I hope all my friends in England will get the equivalent for the nation soon.
