LINES are blocked on the railway through Kidderminster Station after a landslip at a nearby pub.

The landslip, near to the Railway Train pub in Offmore Road, happened shortly after 4pm and has caused delays to train services through the area.

Photographs show a car hanging over the edge of the landslip and several fence panels and a section of the floor surface have fallen down the slope near to the tracks.

Firefighters are understood to have secured the car to a brick wall to stop it from falling onto the tracks, however all lines through Kidderminster remain blocked.
