  1. Hello, to clarify please.. the trai will come to SOT via Kidsgrove.. it will SOT station, not on Heron Cross /Longton line but instead..over bridge on City rd/stoke-Fenton.. Trentham lakes & Britannia/bet365 statuim to Stone – Stafford… Do you agree.

    How long will it stop at Stoke (SOT)?
    Trying think of a spot to see it, if station busy.
    Thanks

        1. If you can find the Range superstore in Fenton the car park goes right next to the mainline south of Stoke station you can get some good shots as it passes through
