The full extent of railway flooding after a water main burst has been captured in incredible drone footage. Network Rail filmed the situation from the skies, with the footage showing thousands of gallons of free-flowing water poring over track lines in and around Audenshaw, Tameside.
United Utilities, meanwhile, said in an update on Friday it was continuing to repair the burst main next to the railway at Audenshaw without disrupting water supplies to customers in the area.
The track cannot be re-opened until the water has drained away - with the situation continuing to impact train services between Manchester Piccadilly, Hadfield and Stalybridge.
