The album, which is the first to feature their new singer Dave Longdon, is available to pre-order now, from www.bigbigtrain.com, for just £8.00. It will not be available from anywahere else until the 15th December, and these pre-orders will arrive on or just before that date.

Also appearing on the album are Nick D’Virgilio (Spocks Beard), Francis Dunnery, Jem Godfrey (Frost) and Dave Gregory (XTC).

The band have made the 23 minute long title track, The Underfall Yard, available for free downloading at their website.

Gregory Spawton says of the album: "The Underfall Yard is a collection of songs which tell stories, some old and some new. The listener will travel through the tunnels made by the great Victorian engineers in England’s chalkhills, will hear the mournful laments of coastal villages lost to the sea on storm-filled nights, will meet the grand architect of castles, and hear the tale of the man who saved a great cathedral from collapse by diving under its flooded foundations. We hope you enjoy our new music."
