anyone know how long take from when ferry arrives to you get off boat int arrivals and how far train station is?

If you are gettting the fast ferry, you can be at the train station in as quickly as 10 minutes - obviously depending on arriving on time, speed of unloading, getting through security, etc.

If getting a cruise ferry, there is a bus transfer incolved, that can add 10-20 minutes.

Leaving a total of perhaps 40-60 minutes would be prudent.

Is that specifically for B'ham trains?

When I came off the Irish ferries vessel, the walk to awaiting trains for London was about 8 minutes with no bus involved.

All trains use the same trains tation. Different ferries use different terminals.

Sail and rail ticket, you can book the ferry and train ticket in one. Should be cheaper.
