On Sunday 1st April 2018, the following TPE services will not stop at Habrough:

08:48 (booked Habrough 11:26), 15:55 (booked Habrough 18:26) and 19:55 (booked Habrough 22:26) Manchester Airport - Cleethorpes

09:26 (booked Habrough 09:44) and 12:12 (booked Habrough 12:30) Cleethorpes - Manchester Airport

Passengers wishing to travel to/from Habrough on these trains should travel by rail replacement bus from Habrough to Grimsby Town or vice-versa. Rail replacement buses will be timed as follows:

09:00 Habrough - Grimsby Town, arriving 09:25 to connect with the 09:34 train to Manchester Airport

09:40 Grimsby Town - Habrough, connecting out of the 09:26 train from Cleethorpes.

11:10 Habrough - Grimsby Town, arriving 11:35, to connect with the 11:42 train to Cleethorpes

11:45 Habrough - Grimsby Town, arriving 12:10, connecting into the 12:20 train to Manchester Airport

11:50 Grimsby Town - Habrough, connecting out of the 08:48 train from Manchester Airport

12:25 Grimsby Town - Habrough, connecting out of the 12:12 train from Cleethorpes

18:05 Habrough - Grimsby Town, arriving 18:30, connecting into the 18:39 train to Cleethorpes

18:45 Grimsby Town - Habrough, connecting out of the 15:55 train from Manchester Airport

22:05 Habrough - Grimsby Town, arriving 22:30, connecting into the 22:39 train to Cleethorpes

22:45 Grimsby Town - Habrough, connecting out of the 19:55 train from Manchester Airport

 

I suspect that this is to allow trains to be strengthened to 6 coaches, as 6 coach 185s are not permitted to call at Habrough.
