A person was hit by a train near Highams Park Station last night.
There are unconfirmed claims on Twitter that it happened on the road crossing next to the station.
The Chingford to Liverpool Street railway line was suspended yesterday evening as a result.
The Guardian is awaiting further information about what happened.
