TRAIN services on the Norwich to London Liverpool Street line were disrupted this morning due to a line-side fire.

National Express East Anglia services were running with delays of up to 20 minutes during the rush hour period because of the incident at Chelmsford at around 7am today.

Power on the line between Chelmsford and Hatfield Peverel was switched off for a few minutes at 7.10am so emergency services could deal with the incident.

Services are gradually getting back to normal.
