Services between Leeds, Lincoln and Kings Cross are affected after an empty passenger service struck a stationary train at the Neville Hill depot. | |
Train operator London North Eastern Railway (LNER) said an investigation was under way after the "very low-speed" collision on Wednesday night. | |
No-one was injured but disruption is expected on the network until about 18:30 GMT. | |
In a statement, LNER said: "We apologise to any customers who may have their journeys disrupted." | |
Network Rail said the disruption was because access was restricted to the depot which is used by a number of train operators. | |
A spokesperson said: "We are working with train operators to run the best possible service and passengers can check their specific journey on National Rail Enquiries or with their train operator before travelling." | |
