Southend to Liverpool Street is about 50 mins on the train with a regular service and just a few minutes from Aircraft to Platform.
But why would you bother Wigan to Euston on the train is 2 hrs much faster (and cheaper if you book early) than travelling to the airport, security, wait, fly and then a 50 min train journey
Never underestimate how long it takes to get around London. If you're doing Manchester centre to London centre, then yes, the train is fine and a better option. Anywhere else around the conurbation it's better to take a flight to an airport nearby. So MAN-SEN can make as much sense as MAN-LHR.
