Reports of a person hit by a train at Ealing Broadway.

Thoughts with everyone involved.

A lot of trains coming up from the West of England have been reported full and standing during the morning so a lot of people likely to be caught up in the disruption.

Twitter user @AlanGurling has tweeted the following photo of the scene outside Ealing Broadway station at around 1300 today, there seems to be a lot of emergency services vehicles present:



Also the following from Ealing Today: http://www.ealingtoday.co.uk/default.asp?section=info&page=eaebtrain002.htm

A woman's been killed after being struck by an Oxford to Paddington train at Ealing Broadway this lunchtime.

British Transport Police say: '' BTP▸ (British Transport Police) officers were called to the line close to Ealing Broadway Railway station on Saturday 30th August after a report that a woman had been struck by a train.

''The incident was reported at 12.27 and is being treated as non suspicious. Medics pronounced the woman dead at the scene. A file will be prepared for the Coroner.

The line will be handed back to Network Rail at 1400
