Train services in south west England are not expected to return to normal before the weekend, National Rail has warned. Storms Ingrid and Chandra, which GWR described as ‘back to back’, have caused severe flooding in parts of Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, while after heavy seas had damaged a sea wall, a sinkhole measuring 8m by 3.5m appeared near the railway between Dawlish and Teignmouth. Network Rail engineers have been carrying out emergency repairs overnight.
