Major update to our Blackpool Branches: Preston - Blackpool & Ormskirk route

Updates also available for West Coast Main Line: Preston-Carlisle and the BR Class 86/2 & Mk2F Coaches pack!
17 June 2026

A sizeable update to our Blackpool Branches: Preston - Blackpool & Ormskirk route is now available, the main component of which is a heavily updated timetable which utilises the Mk2D-F and Mk3a coaches from our West Coast Main Line: Preston-Carlisle and Crewe-Preston routes and the BR Class 86/2 & Mk2F Coaches pack; this means that services between Blackpool and London Euston are now fully authentic, with air-conditioned Mk2s and Mk3s in use.

Along with changes of rolling stock, this timetable update also features loco changes at Preston for applicable trains so you will see electric locos swapped for diesel on services to Blackpool. Furthermore, the Class 47/3 from the Crewe-Preston route will be drivable for those who have purchased this latest Just Trains route.

See the Blackpool Branches: Preston - Blackpool & Ormskirk Support page for full details of this new 'Update 2' software. 

Updated software is also now available for the West Coast Main Line: Preston-Carlisle route (Update 2) and the BR Class 86/2 & Mk2F Coaches pack (Update 1).
