A Little Bit of Stone​

There’s nothing quite like the sight (and sound!) of a steam train thundering through Stone – and we’ve got one to look forward to this Saturday, 8th March!
The latest one is set to pass through Stone Station at 8:39am, heading out across the countryside towards Yarnfield, before making its return journey in the evening, passing back through at 7:21pm.
As always with these heritage services, timings can sometimes shift – so if you’re planning to catch a glimpse, keep an eye on the latest updates here: https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/.../2025-03-08/0600-2000...
Have you snapped any great photos of past steam trains through Stone? Share them with us in the comments – we’d love to see!
Thanks to Kenneth for sharing the information with us.

And it looks as if its stopping in Stafford from 0855 to 1003 on the way down, and from 1817 to 1906 on the way back.
