Landslip causes train disruption

A landslip caused disruption for morning rail travellers on Tuesday.
Fewer trains were able to run between London Paddington and Reading due to the incident at Sonning Cutting, linking Twyford and Reading, Great Western Railway (GWR) said.
The operator said services running to and from the stations could be delayed or cancelled.
The line reopened just before 08:30 BST.
A Network Rail spokesperson said one of the lines was shut after the landslip to "keep everyone safe", but teams responded quickly and all lines had now reopened.
"As part of our work to improve resilience in the Thames Valley, we have future plans to stabilise the cutting with netting secured by soil nails, which will help to prevent material reaching the tracks," they added.
Trains across the country are also being affected by a walkout by Aslef train drivers.
Passengers have been urged to check their journeys before travelling.
