Commuters travelling from Norwich to London experienced delays today after a power failure.

A number of trains travelling on the line to London Liverpool Street faced delays after a problem with overhead wires just outside Norwich led to the loss of power.

Services were delayed into the afternoon while Network Rail fixed the problem. A spokesman for Network Rail apologised for the inconvenience and said the fault was fixed by 12.30pm.
