The travel company behind Flying Scotsman's unsuccessful 'Cathedrals Express' trip from Ely to Norwich today says the locomotive "developed a fault" earlier and had to stop at Peterborough.

In a statement, the Steam Dreams Rail co. said: "Flying Scotsman developed a fault with its hot axel box on the right hand driving wheel, which was discovered at Peterborough.

"Unfortunately this means the locomotive is a failure, and the Cathedrals Express will be hauled instead by a vintage diesel locomotive this evening.

"Steam locomotives need 24 hours preparation so a failure like this during the day leaves us no choice but to run with diesel as the extent of the hotbox cannot be assessed until the locomotive has returned to a depot.

"This is a very unusual occurrence in the middle of a journey and only the second time the Flying Scotsman has had any problems since its return in January 2016.

"We are extremely sorry for the disappointment that this will cause to both our passengers and onlookers."

A student who moved to Peterborough from Afghanistan a decade ago will receive a first-class law degree from Anglia Ruskin University this evening.

Hameeda Hussani arrived in the city at the age of 13. She'd never been to school and couldn't speak English.

Hameeda, 23, used to earn money for her family by weaving carpets with her sister.

"Ever since I was a child I’d wanted to study law," she said. "But coming to the UK unable to speak, read or write English, I didn’t believe it was possible for me.

"When you’ve dreamed of doing something for so long, even if it seems impossible, the thought revisits you again and again."

Her next target is to secure a training contract with a firm of solicitors in the summer, with a view to specialising in property or corporate law.

"Anybody can go as far as they want to go with the right determination and support," she said.

Flying Scotsman, which was due to travel to Norwich this evening, has broken down, the British Transport Police (BTP) said.

Thousands of people were expected to try to see the famous locomotive as it travelled from Ely at 17:30 to Norwich, due to arrive at 19:00.

However, BTP, external said it would travel no further than Peterborough "due to a failure".
