TRAIN services have been affected as a result of a trespasser on the tracks.

Services between Brighton and Chichester were disrupted after the trespasser was found on the line near Barnham Railway Station.

Power was switched off at the track as a safety precaution and emergency services were called to the scene. 

The trespasser has since been removed from the track and power has been switched on, however Southern Rail have advised that there may still be delays and cancellations to services through Barnham.

Live departures from Barnham at around 6pm on Wednesday, September 21, show a number of delays and cancellations including on trains towards Brighton.
