SCENE: Workmen assess the derailed train
RAIL lines between Hereford and Worcester have re-opened.
The track was closed in th early hours after an engineering train came off the track at Malvern Wells. The Tamper - which was not carrying passengers - came to a halt at about 12.25am, causing major disruption to services.
A spokesman for Network Rail said the lines were cleared and re-opened at 3pm today. Normal services, however, will not resume until later.
