Commuters have been telling their favourite tails about a furry feline visitor that brightens up their journeys to work.
Colin the cat sits at Braintree station to welcome weary travellers and curl up on people’s laps for a pre-work cuddle.
Nicknamed Colin by the ticket office staff, it isn’t known where the black and white moggy lives although ticket office clerk Wayne Claydon has taken him under his wing, even popping in to feed Colin on his days off.
For the full story, see this week's Braintree and Witham Times.
