Lightning damaging the signalling system at Bank Hall means the line between Southport and Hunts Cross line is disrupted. As a result, trains may be cancelled or revised.
Trains from Hunts Cross will be started / terminated at Sandhills.
Trains from Southport will be started / terminated at Bootle New Strand.
Disruption is expected until the end of the day.
Customer Advice:
A rail replacement bus service has been requested to run from Sandhills to Bootle New Strand in both directions. More information will be provided when this is in operation.
