Ribble Steam Railway, Strand Road
The railway lines around Preston Dock largely fell into disuse after the closure of the docks. A preservation group that had been operating in Southport relocated to Preston in 1999 and began operating as the Ribble Steam Railway in 2005. The Railway runs passenger trains from a base at Preston Riverside Station as far as Strand Road which is the eastern terminus of the line although there is no facility for passengers to alight or for locomotives to run round their train here.
