  • Preston railway station serves the city of Preston in Lancashire, England and is a major station on the West Coast Main Line. It is served by Northern Rail, Virgin Trains, and TransPennine Express services. Limited operations are carried out by London Midland and First ScotRail.
  • A station was first opened on this site by the North Union Railway in 1838. It was extended in 1850 with new platforms under the separate management of the East Lancashire Railway, and by 1863, London–Scotland trains stopped here to allow passengers to eat in the station dining room. The current station was built 1880 and extended in 1903 and 1913, when it had fifteen platforms. A free buffet for servicemen was provided during both World Wars. The "East Lancashire" platforms were demolished in the 1970s as connecting lines closed. Only eight platforms remain in regular use today.
