Train passengers are still facing delays today on the vital West Coast Main Line after a bridge collapsed. A lorry hit the railway bridge on Thursday in Nuneaton, causing serious damage and blocking lines, but no one was injured. Some trains, including Avanti West Coast services, are running slower with delays up to 10 minutes.
