Does anyone in Brigg today recognise the children seen here flying the flag for British Rail in the town decades ago?
The pictures are thought to date back to the late 1980s or perhaps the early 1990s and were taken on Old Courts Road and Island Carr Road.
It appears to be some kind of promotion for the nationalised transport network.
The trailer attached to the Bedford van has a Class 37 diesel painted on the side, while a blue Russian-built Lada car can be seen passing Earnshaw's Woodyard.
Brigg Blog discovered these pictures recently among a pile of others relating to various topics.
