About Preston Train Station

Opened in 1838 by the North Union Railway, Preston became a major interchange.

Its impressive 1880s buildings survived wartime bombing.

The 2002 modernisation created a transport hub handling 4 million annual passengers.

Preston's history reflects Lancashire's industrial importance, where competing railway companies created complex infrastructure.

Recent upgrades position it as a key HS2 northern terminus, demonstrating how Victorian stations can adapt for 21st century high speed rail.

The station's ongoing expansion maintains Preston's strategic role connecting Scotland Wales and England amid changing transport priorities.
