Storm Antoni: Fallen trees block rail lines in Devon and Cornwall

Fallen trees have caused disruption to rail services in Devon and Cornwall.

Great Western Railway (GWR) said it was advising customers to avoid travelling between Penzance and Exeter St David’s as “dozens” of trees had fallen onto the tracks.

GWR said cancellations and delays of more than two hours were expected.

The Met Office said the strongest wind gusts were in Berry Head, Devon, and Cardinham, Cornwall, both setting new provisional records for August.

Berry Head recorded wind gusts of 78mph (125kmh), while 56mph (90kmh) was recorded in Cardinham.
