Platform closed after fire

Railway officials have closed a platform following a train fire at Derby railway station.

The station was evacuated while fire crews tackled the flames in the engine compartment of a diesel train standing on platfrom three.

No-one was hurt during the blaze which broke out just before 0700 GMT on Saturday.

Managers at the Midland Mainline station say services are back to normal, although one platform remains closed.

A fire service spokeswoman said two pumps responded to the incident.
