At 10.30 this morning, a TPE Barrow - Manchester Airport service (2U60) struck a person just north of Lancaster station, resulting in the closure of the WCML in both directions north of Preston.
Other than the obvious distress for the victim's family, train-crew and passengers, the death resulted in delays and cancellations affecting several hundred people.
The LEP have a report on-line and a video of the huge queues at Preston.
This is just the latest in what seems to be a worrying trend, with fatalities seemingly every week.
