Flitwick trains delayed after truck damages rail bridge

Trains could not move between Flitwick and Bedford until the extent of damage had been determined

Train services have been "significantly delayed" after the top of a truck "scraped" along the underside of a rail bridge.

Bedfordshire Police were called to Windmill Road in Flitwick at 10:10 BST.

The vehicle left the scene and police say there was no structural damage to the bridge.

Thameslink warned commuters to allow up to an additional 45 minutes to complete their journeys because delays were caused while the bridge was checked.
