Four people were trapped after a lift malfunctioned at a Merseyrail station.
Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service were called to Waterloo Station at 1.49pm today (January 24) after four people became trapped in the lift, which was stuck between floors. One fire engine attended and crews had to access the motor room to manually raise the lift to the first floor.
Once the lift reached the first floor, those trapped in the lift were released. They were unharmed but the lift is now out of service. Fire crews were able to leave the station at 2.26pm.
