rail line

Snow is causing travel disruption as passengers face having to take the bus through an area where rail lines are shut.

It said electrification of the Borders rail line and of the Fife Circle rail line had been paused due to an ongoing "refresh" of a decarbonisation action plan.

The rail line between Crediton and Okehampton was closed on Sunday morning for more than an hour after a train hit a tree, which was felled by strong winds.

Water reached up to the windows of abandoned cars in Birmingham, while submerged rail lines caused cancellations out of London and in Shropshire.
