Reports coming in of a derailment at Winsford. Latest info is the service disruption information page from National Rail Enquiries, which starts by saying Quote: An engineering train has derailed at Winsford. Then goes on to say Quote: Because of this, trains are currently unable to run between Preston / Liverpool Lime Street and Crewe. This will continue until further notice. More as/when known.

Latest unconfirmed info I've heard is that the train is cleared, but perhaps obviously they can't just run trains again straight away again, track needs checking for any damage, RAIB need to do their investigation, etc, etc.
