The very light rail service for Stourbridge was cancelled after experiencing a second set of issues on Saturday morning. The first problem was cleared and the shuttle was operating from 11.30am.

But West Midlands Railway alerted passengers to a new fault at 3pm on Saturday, saying: “Due to a new fault that has developed, the service has been suspended until further notice.”

The rail operator later updated passengers that cancellations would continue throughout Sunday with a mini bus in place to shuttle passengers between Stourbridge Town and Stourbridge Junction.
