COWS on the line delayed passengers on First Great Western trains today.

Network Rail staff were sent to round up cows on the line between Kingham and Moreton in Marsh.

The delays were affecting services between  Oxford and Worcester Shrub Hill.

First Great Western said that delays were now easing.

The company tweeted: “Services are returning to normal following cows on the line between Oxford and Moreton-in-Marsh. Apologies for the delay to your journey."
