There are set to be additional Northern rail services between Sheffield and Lincoln from next month, under a timetable shakeup.

The train operator says services on most routes will remain the same in May, though some timings may be tweaked for punctuality reasons.

The new Sheffield to Lincoln trains will run on Sundays, stopping at all stations along the route.

Toby Higgins, Head of Business Performance at Northern, said: "We've listened to feedback from our customers and have focused on improving reliability when the May timetable change takes place.

"Whilst there won't be widespread changes to times, I'd advise customers to check before they travel as some services will leave a few minutes earlier than they do now to help with overall punctuality."
