Straw sculptures have become a familiar sight throughout East Yorkshire at the end of harvest time every year.

Neil Thwaites was known as the Corn Dolly Man for years after creating works modelled from straw that would appear throughout the county in fields and on roadside verges.

This custom went on for more than 20 years until his death last year.

His friends Peter Edwards and Joe Parkinson, decided to continue his work and have completed this train which they placed a Hayton, near Pocklington, to mark the end of harvesting this year.
