Four hurt as train hits buffers
Rail services have been suspended in part of Norfolk after a train hit the buffers at a station, leaving four passengers with minor injuries.

One Railway said services between Cromer and Sheringham will be disrupted until further notice while an investigation is carried out.

The incident involved the 1045 BST service from Norwich, which arrived in Sheringham at 1145 BST.

Buses are now replacing trains between Cromer and Sheringham.

Peter Meades, from One Railway, said: "The 1045 Norwich to Sheringham train was travelling at a low speed when it hit the buffers as it approached Sheringham station.

"The four passengers who were slightly injured are being treated."
