Train operator TransPennine Express (TPE) has installed dozens of bird and bat boxes at nine of its stations, aiming to provide additional habitats for native wildlife.

Fifty boxes have been installed on buildings, walls and trees at Yarm, Northallerton, Thirsk, Hull, Cleethorpes, Grimsby Town, Barnetby, Scunthorpe and Stalybridge stations.

The operator has used different types of boxes, which it hopes will encourage a variety of different species. It wants its stations to become home to a variety of bat species, and to species of birds including robins, blackbirds, wrens, wagtails, swallows, and swifts.
