Several services to London have been cancelled, operator First Hull Trains has said.

Current delays are:• 11.48am London Kings Cross to Hull: Cancelled due to fault.• 1.48pm London Kings Cross to Hull: Terminating at Goole. Not calling at Brough or Hull.• 3.12pm Hull to London Kings Cross: Starting from Goole. No longer calling at Brough or Hull. Passengers should get to Goole or Doncaster with another operator.• 5.10pm Hull to London Kings Cross: Cancelled due to fault.• 8.30pm London Kings Cross to Hull: Starting from Doncaster. No longer calling at London Kings Cross, Grantham and Retford. Passengers will be able to travel with alternative operators and some trains are being held so connections can be made.

A First Hull Trains statement said: "The problem is is due to a person hit by a train."

British Transport Police said the accident didn't happen in East Yorkshire but further south.

It is the second time trouble has hit the line in less than a week.
