Preston Railway station is on the busy West Coast Main Line. Formerly one of the largest in the country, Preston suffered from the cut-backs of the 1960's and 1970's. Platforms were destroyed or blocked and a number of links to the communities south were demolished to create a shopping centre. Signs of the old station still exist - old railway lines are now pathway walks through parkland, and former rail tracks can still be seen throughout the city itself.
