The main railway line between Liverpool and Manchester will remain closed for most of Friday after a car crashed on to the line.
The crash, which happened near Regents Road roundabout in Salford in the early hours, caused “significant damage to the railway and overhead electric cables”, said Network Rail.
No trains are able to run on the Chat Moss line connecting Liverpool Lime Street and Manchester Piccadilly.
British Transport Police and Network Rail engineers are on site to remove the vehicle and repair the damaged cables.
