TRAINS are now running on time from Weymouth after an earlier fire on a train.

There were major delays on the Weymouth to Dorchester line this morning following a fire under a train at Upwey.

Around 20 passengers were evacuated while firefighters dealt with the blaze.

A spokesman for Dorset Fire and Rescue Service said two crews from Weymouth dealt with the incident shortly after 6am.

Train crews had already tackled the fire.

Dozens of passengers were stranded at Weymouth and Dorchester stations while the train was made safe and moved from the station.
