This service is normally worked by a single Northern 153.
The 0700 Cleethorpes and return was worked by 153331
But the 0900 Cleethorpes to Barton and return and subsequent workings have been strengthened by another 153 no 153317.
This is in connection with the Cleethorpes Air display for today and tomorrow.
I was at Grimsby Town station when the 0952 Barton to Cleethorpes pulled in 14 minutes late with 153331 + 153317 in the consist their was 200+ passengers plus many pushchairs waiting when it departed there was still 100+ waiting when TPE 185124 pulled in it was already standing room only but by some miracle when he pulled out there was only on pram and 5 adults left.

Ticket checks also taking place at Cleethorpes today. I had received reports from my uncle (who lives beside Cleethorpes station) of what you had mentioned.
