Halifax trains: Trains cancelled between Leeds and Halifax after signalling fault

A fault in the signalling system between the two stations meant trains had to be stopped.

Although the line is now back open – as of 2pm – Northern says some services may still be cancelled or delayed.

Disruption is expected until 3.30pm.

There are replacement buses running but Northern is warning that those travelling by these buses will have their journey times extended by an hour.
