Last night I was waiting at Bham New Street for the normal 22:03 service to Nottingham, stood on platform 10A next to the usual class 170, then all of a sudden everyone crosses the platform, to platform 11A and dives on a Voyager which was sitting there that made a 22:00 service to Derby stopping at Tamworth and Burton on Trent. The train manager from the 22:03 train said the other service (22:00) would leave first, so what was this 22:00 service to Derby? Nothing advertised on the departure boards, and nothing on any rail app, plus why a service 3 minutes before another?
