The closed stations on the following route are shown in red. Does anyone know if they were closed simultaneously (and when) or separately?
Retford; Gainsborough Central; Northorpe; Kirton Lindsey; Scawby; Brigg; Barnetby; Brocklesby; Habrough; Healing; Stallingborough; Great Coates; Grimsby Town

Today's limited Saturday only service most likely serves only some of the stations indicated above as still open.

Northorpe closed 4 July 1955
Scawby (_& Hibaldstow) closed 5 February 1968
Brocklesby closed 4 October 1993

All dates from the excellent 'Railway Passenger Stations of Great Britain - A Chronology' by Michael Quick.

I believe every of the Sat only Sheffield-Cleethorpes services serve all stations to Harbrough, then just Grimsby Town before Cleethorpes (i.e. non-stop at Great Coates et al).
