The issues were caused by Storm Bert, which battered the county on Sunday (November 23) and left Northampton Railway Station, including the tracks, under water. This has caused damage to railway lines, signalling equipment and more, which Network Rail has been working to fix, ever since.

Passengers are advised to check before they travel today and for the rest of the week.
