Default Creating a Data Validation List based on a Value in another cell

Hi, I wonder if anybody can help
In cell A1 there are multiple options eg London, Birmingham, Manchester, I
twould like a data validation list to appear in cell B! based on the value in
cell B1 so if it is London I have a drop down list of Waterloo, Victoria,
Kings Cross etc, but if it is Birmingham then I have a drop down list of New
Street, International Airport etc

Hope this make sense.

You'll need DATA VALIDATION for one dropdown list and INDIRECT DATA
VALIDATION for the other one ( 2 dropdown lists ). If you need directions
write me back, I'm coming back in 1 hour.
