As this is at the NEC train would be a good choice to Birmingham International. You could also travel by National Express direct coach service taking 3h 30m.

I work for Network Rail. I've used the company computer and have found 1 train direct from Preston to Birmingham. This train runs on 7th December. It's operated by Virgin Trains and leaves Preston at 0829am. Arriving in Birmingham at 1006. If you want to leave later then you will have a few changes / connections to make. Hope this helps :>D

Hi, i found a coach from Preston to Birmingham coach station, then you could change there and get the coach to the clothes show. It also might be worth contacting you local newspaper to see if they will be having any planned for it. And perhaps a local coach or travel agent might be of help if you want to set up a coach party. Any way have good time

Around 90 minutes by train to Birmingham, then take it from there.
Possibly nearer the time some local coach companies may offer trips, OR you could always hire a coach yourself and try to fill in with other interested persons.

I always use www.thetrainline.com and have looked for your journey. I was told that they do not have information for more than months ahead. I would suggest, therefore, that you reask your question later in the year and it may be possible for more details to be supplied. I assume the Clothes Show is to be held at the National Exhibition Centre
