Every little helps as they say. The new lockable posterboard kindly put up by @lner.co.uk at Retford station, now displays the Brigg Line timetable, attracts a passing customer. Increased footfall is paramount to demonstrate a better Brigg Line rail service. #briggline

Let's hope that Brigg and Kirton-in-Lindsey are included in this offer, as they have been missed off for a number of years and it is communities like this that deserve the chance to catch a train.
