There are problems on the East Coast Mainline at the moment after a Hull Trains service suffered a fuel leak after hitting something on the tracks which ruptured fuel tanks.
The affected service is the 09:48 train from London to Hull and it's currently at a standstill between Peterborough and Grantham.
Network Rail says the driver reported hitting something and seeing smoke so the train was brought to a stop.
There was no smoke in the carriages so passengers didn't need to be evacuated, according to Network Rail.
The company adds that the train is going to be towed away as soon as possible, the fuel spill is being cleared up and nearby track is being inspected to ensure there's no obstruction.
Two of the four lines have now reopened, so trains are once again moving through the area.
Quote MessageThey’re not telling us much. We hit something which caused damage to the undercarriage and ruptured fuel tanks. All calm and staff being excellent."

The Pacific salmon has started to populate UK rivers and for the first time has been found in Yorkshire.

The number of professional beggars in North East Lincolnshire is on the rise according to a report going before the council this month.
The council says the areas worst affected are around Freeman Street (pictured) and Victoria Street in Grimsby and around High Street in Cleethorpes.
Humberside Police says it's working to help get street beggars back on their feet and is asking people not to give money directly to them but to donate to registered charities.
Quote MessageWe need to be in a situation where people don't feel under threat and intimidated due to people taking spice and other drugs on the street, which is happening by many people who are professional beggars... so my message is that those who need support can get support and those who are professional beggars need to be dealt with."

Doctors are appealing for people to only use Hull Royal Infirmary’s A&E in emergencies after a rise in attendances over the past two days.
Hull and East Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust is warning of major pressure on the hospital after more than 800 patients attended the emergency department this week.
On Monday, 420 patients turned up for treatment while 404 attended yesterday.
The normal daily average of attendance is around 330.
Dr Jacquelyn Smithson, Medical Director for the trust’s emergency department, is appealing to people to use GPs, pharmacies and urgent care centres in Bransholme, Beverley, Bridlington and Goole to ease the pressure currently facing A&E.
