Trains have returned to normal on the Norwich to Cambridge line this afternoon following disruption after a man was hit by a train.

The incident happened at Brandon station at about 1.50pm when the man was hit by the 12.57 Norwich to Liverpool Lime Street East Midlands train.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

British Transport Police (BTP) attended, as did Norfolk and Suffolk police and the East of England Ambulance Service.

A BTP spokesman said the incident was being treated as non-suspicious, and that a file would be prepared for the coroner.

Passengers faced delays of up to an hour, but National Rail said trains were now running normally.
