This Saturday 31st it’ll be stopping at Preston Lancs to pick up passengers. I’m going there to see it. Any idea what platform it might use?

Click on the link on the Railadvent page or go to Realtime trains. This shows it will be at platform 6

It’s not set in stone that it will use platform 6 as this can change dynamically depending on other train movements especially if any of them are running early or late, or even terminating short. As they are running the steam with a head code it should be displayed on the station’s arrivals and departure board.

  Thanks Mike. I’ll keep my eye on the overhead displays.
