ON RIGHT TRACK


A novel and cheap idea to help passengers waiting at Brigg’s unstaffed railway station was put forward by Coun Jackie Brock at the town council’s monthly meeting.
Why not get the signalman in the box on Bigby Road to ring the phone in the shelter on the station and advise passengers of train delays?
Coun Brock said she was one of four people who endured a long wait on the platform for a train which had been held up at Retford - without knowing the reason at the time.
Brigg station only receives passenger trains on Saturdays – three going to Cleethorpes and three to Sheffield.
