✅ Disruption caused by a fault with a river swing bridge earlier today at Somerleyton has now ended.

With #Lowestoft the UK’s most easterly railway station, at the heart of the town and opposite the harbour since 1855 means when there are no trains to see we have an array of maritime traffic arriving and departing the #PortOfLowestoft

⚠ Due to a fault with a river swing bridge at Somerleyton all lines are blocked.

Train services running through this station may be cancelled, delayed or revised. Disruption is expected until further notice.
