It runs from Barton-upon-Humber south east to Cleethorpes and was designated by the Department for Transport as a community rail line in February 2007. Barton station is near to the Humber Bridge. It is situated on the south bank of the Humber Estuary Places servedThe towns and villages served by the route are listed below.
ServicesPassenger services on the line are provided by Northern however the trains crews are provided by TransPennine Express as Northern does not have any train crew based in Cleethorpes to run the service. Freight services previously served the chemical works at Barton-upon-Humber and the sidings at {{rws|New Holland Pier}}. Services are operated by one Class 153 unit every two hours in each direction on weekdays.[1] Sunday trains only run during the summer months (May to early September). Before Class 153s started operating Class 142 Pacers & Class 150s (and before that Class 114) DMU sets were used. On Mondays – Saturday, the first service of the day from {{rws|Cleethorpes}} to {{rws|Barton-on-Humber}}, the 06:00 departure, and the 06:58 return was operated by a First TransPennine Express Class 185 Desiro unit (for operational reasons), although this service did not call at {{rws|Great Coates}} and {{rws|Thornton Abbey}} due to the low platforms. This practice ceased at the December 2013 timetable change and the first train from Cleethorpes now serves all intermediate stations other than New Clee, which is currently served by trains on request during daylight hours only. From August 2019 (deferred from October 2017 and the October 2018) services on the line will be transferred to the East Midlands franchise. Since the closure of the chemical plant no scheduled freight services operate on the route, though occasional trainloads have operated from the bulk grain terminal at New Holland (which now occupies the former pier it remained rail-connected for a period, but the tracks are now in disrepair and unusable). InfrastructureThe line is mostly double track, except for the sections at each end and the connecting curve between {{rws|Habrough}} and {{rws|Ulceby}}. The eastern portion of the route as far as Habrough is shared with the South Humberside Main Line to {{rws|Doncaster}} and {{rws|Lincoln Central}}, whilst the short section either side of Ulceby also forms part of the busy freight artery between {{rws|Brocklesby}} and the Port of Immingham. West of Ulceby the line is double as far as Oxmarsh Crossing (near New Holland), reverting to single for the final {{convert|3+1/4|mi|km}} to the terminus at Barton. This section has several manual signal boxes with semaphore signalling and manned & gated level crossings in operation.[2] Network Rail are planning to re-signal the line in 2015–16, with control passing to the Rail Operations Centre at {{rws|York}} – the level crossings on the line will then be automated and the existing signal box at Ulceby Junction abolished (those at Goxhill, Barrow Road & Oxmarsh Crossing will remain). HistoryThe {{rws|New Holland}} to {{rws|Grimsby Town}} section of the line follows the Great Grimsby and Sheffield Junction Railway, opened in 1848. This subsequently became part of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway and eventually the London and North Eastern Railway at the 1923 Grouping. The line was extended to Cleethorpes by the MS&LR in 1863, with a branch from Goxhill to the docks at Immingham added in 1911. The line was particularly busy during the Second World War, as it served RAF airfields at Goxhill and Killingholme in addition to the various industrial installations in the area.[3] The line was twice proposed for closure in the 1960s (in 1963 and again four years later), but was reprieved on each occasion (though the Goxhill to Immingham Line did close in June 1963).[4] Prior to the opening of the Humber Bridge in June 1981, passenger services ran via {{rws|New Holland Pier}} where they connected with the Humber Ferry service across the River Humber to Corporation Pier in Hull but after the bridge was commissioned the ferry service was withdrawn and a new chord line and replacement station provided at New Holland to allow trains to run directly to and from Barton. Since then, the connection to/from Hull has been provided by bus over the bridge and now operates out of the bus/rail interchange at {{rws|Hull Paragon}}. The service ran hourly until the spring of 1990, but was cut to the current two-hourly pattern at that year's timetable change by British Rail due to unreliability and a shortage of rolling stock. The winter Sunday service also suffered the same fate in 1999 following the abolition of Humberside County Council and subsequent withdrawal of funding by the replacement unitary authorities.[4] References1. ^Northern Rail Timetable 31 – Barton-on-Humber to CleethorpesNorthern Rail; Retrieved 6 December 2013 2. ^"Friends of The Barton Line – Current Issues" Barton Line Rail User Group; Retrieved 30 April 2014 3. ^History of the Barton Cleethorpes Railway Line {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131211134003/http://www.nelincs.gov.uk/resident/transport--streets-and-parking/public-transport/history-line-guide/ |date=11 December 2013 }} NE Lincs CC website article; Retrieved 6 December 2013 4. ^1 A Brief History of the Barton LineFriends of the Barton Line; Retrieved 6 December 2013 External links{{Commons category|Barton Line}}{{GeoGroupTemplate}}
