Emergency services were called to an overturned car on a level crossing in Craven Arms last night.

Four fire crews from Craven Arms, Ludlow, Wellington and the rescue tender were sent to the crossing at Onibury at just 7:40pm.

On arrival - crews found the car on its roof. 

Road closures were in place and trains were stopped while the vehicle was removed from the crossing.

The driver, an 80-year-old woman, suffered minor injuries.

The road has since re-opened and the train service has resumed.
