Since after presenter Ben ride the bus to the other side of Birmingham city where i discovered one of the biggest supermarket's there it is called Wing Yip Supermarket. The items were plenty enough to fetch things but waiting for the next bus it is quite long.

Today, i went to ride British Railway to Wholesale Market and it was not too far reaching that place. Normally, when anyone use single fare ticket, it normally cost £2.8 each fare which is sightly expensive than riding West Midlands bus. But there's solution that you can go on a trip by spending lower price in order to save budget. If you travellers in UK wish to minimise your cost to go travel by railway, just spend £30 pounds Railcard to help saving 25% ticket fare price in every year.

I used online ticket app to purchase railway ticket and just use QR code to scan at the gate when entering in Birmingham New Street station. And the app explained clearly about which train you should be onboard in which platform. And it told me that the trains will be stopping at platform 1a at Birmingham New Street station. Great to know that it actually have sunny day going on a railway trip like that. Witton to Birmingham city centre wasn't that actually far, just 10 minutes ride to approach where i wish to visit.

After arriving at Witton station, you definitely won't need to use the gate to exit and just find where the wholesale market is, the wholesale market was located inside the corner after passing through kitchen and technology factory. When i approached there in the morning, the workers begun to tidy up the things and ready to closed, so therefore, i fetched one tray of tomatoes only and left the place after visiting there because the opening time is on 3:30 am in the morning to 9:30 am in the morning. Many visitors and businessman who wished to collect fruits, vegetables and also seafood as well. They normally drove the car or the van collecting tonnes of items back to the market. I always thought Birmingham city was too far away from that place but it was not. Just like few stations only and arrived there in no time like in Hong Kong east Rail line where stations will approaching in shorter than 2 - 4 minutes.
