David Unsworth will travel to his first game since taking over as Everton caretaker manager by train as his side prepare for their Carabao Cup clash with Chelsea.
The Blues gathered on Runcorn station in Cheshire before making the trip south to London for their encounter with Antonio Conte's side on Wednesday evening.
Unsworth, in his first press conference since taking over as interim boss, confirmed his desire to take over on a permanent basis and hopes a positive result against Chelsea will go a long way towards convincing the club's top brass.

The 44-year-old insisted his side must get back to winning ways, following their humbling at the hands of Arsenal on Sunday which consequently led to the dismissal of Ronald Koeman.
And he has started his newest stint as caretaker manager by ordering his troops to make the trip to Stamford Bridge by train.
Whether Unsworth chooses to blood the youngsters against Chelsea or whether he decides to field his best XI remains to be seen.
Wayne Rooney, who opened the scoring against the Gunners on the weekend with a stunning effort from 25 yards, appeared in good spirits as the Toffees rocked up at the station.

Unsworth, however, knows he will be judged on results and will hope his first win comes in the capital on Wednesday night.
'The club needs a winning manager,' Unsworth said. 'It is simple. There are some very good foreign managers in the Premier League but we want someone who is going to win.
'It is always difficult when you come into a team that isn't playing well. A new team would like to be winning games. I don't want to pinpoint any individuals. We just haven't won enough games.
'I have got a good idea of how I want the team to play. What time we do have has to be quality time. We haven't got as much training time as we want but they will take it on board.'
