A special fundraising steam train will be calling at Preston station this weekend, on its way from Lancaster to York raising money for Help for Heroes.

It is due at 8.38am on Saturday, accompanied by uniformed army officers.

There will be a special passenger on board - medal-winning arms and explosives search dog Treo.

The dog was awarded the Dickin Medal for his work in Afghanistan, where he saved many lives by locating roadside bombs.
