Chiltern Main Line

The Chiltern Main Line is an inter-urban, regional and commuter railway, part of the British railway system. It links London and Birmingham, England's two largest cities, by a 112-mile route via High Wycombe, Banbury, and Leamington Spa. It complements the West Coast Main Line, the main InterCity route between London and Birmingham. The name Chiltern Line was invented as a marketing name for the line by Network SouthEast in 1985, in reference to the Chiltern Hills.
The line forms part of the suburban rail networks in both cities. The majority of towns towards the London end of the route are prosperous suburbs or commuter-belt towns, such as Ruislip, Gerrards Cross and Beaconsfield. These have a journey time of 30 minutes or less to London Marylebone. In the West Midlands it is one of the Snow Hill Lines. Commuter trains operated by London Midland run between Birmingham Snow Hill, Solihull and Leamington Spa.
