BRIGG TRAINS SIX DAYS A WEEK A 'LONG TERM' ASPIRATION

It looks likely that a new sign pointing the way to Brigg railway station and its Saturdays only train service will be installed near the Monument war memorial during April.
Improved footpath access to the station, including ground works and lighting, is earmarked for discussion by the Brigg 20/20 group, some lights having already been installed.
"Medium term" issues, 2016-19, include:

• First train to Sheffield (from Grimsby) to run earlier in the morning (Saturdays)
• Paint Station (except footbridge which is due for replacement)
• Develop inward traffic along the line with Brigg and Wolds tourist campaign

"Long term action" includes a six days a week service and has a suggested timescale of 2019 and beyond in the action plan.
Our thanks to Paul Johnson, of the Friends of the Brigg Line, for keeping us in the loop (pardon the pun!).
