Passengers waiting at Brigg railway station yesterday for trains that were running late can lodge claims for compensation.
We gather there were problems with signals in the Northorpe area, between Kirton in Lindsey and Gainsborough, which delayed Brigg Line trains operating between Sheffield and Cleethorpes.
If you have retained you ticket, you can register a claim by calling train operator Northern on 0800 200 60 60 (24-hour service).
Passenger trains only call at Brigg station on Saturdays - three running towards Sheffield and three to Grimsby and Cleethorpes.
Some months ago, Brigg Blog had a lengthy wait at our station for the first train of the day towards Barnetby - due to operating problems in Gainsborough - but the on-train staff were so helpful that we didn't lodge a claim for "compo."
We later posted details of an interesting day trip that started badly but ended well.
Travelling by train can have its compensations!
