Praise to our volunteers again, at Kirton in Lindsay and Brigg to inform customers. 👍 Sadly due to failed freight train Sheffield traincrew were delayed taking the 0954 Northern Railway Sheffield Midland to Cleethorpes via Brigg service out.

Many of our volunteers do not live on the Brigg Line, but those that do are willing to come out when things go wrong, like on the 9th of October to then inform customers of delays, this is due to no real-time information or information points at Brigg or Kirton in Lindsay.
