No trains are running between Newcastle Interchange and Maitland on the Hunter line due to urgent signal equipment repairs.

Replacement buses are being organised but are not on site.

The Transport Management Centre said lightning strikes had damaged equipment at Thornton.

Passengers are advised to delay their trip, make alternative arrangements or allow plenty of extra travel time until buses start running.
