There are huge queues outside Merseyrail stations as a power surge has suspended a major train line.
The travel provider's Northern Line started experiencing major issues after a power surge on Friday (February 3) just before 4pm. As a result Southport and Ormskirk services are currently starting and stopping at Sandhills and no Northern Line services are leaving Liverpool Central.
Pictures of Sandhills station show huge queues on the pavement outside as commuters wait for rail replacement buses. Passengers hoping to travel from Liverpool Central are being told they can use their tickets on Transport for Wales services from Liverpool Lime Street.
