A railway worker has died after being struck by a train while working on a track near Lincolnshire.

The man, thought to be aged 26 and from Doncaster, South Yorkshire, was struck at Sykes Lane, about half a mile from Saxilby station at about 13:55 GMT.

British Transport Police said it involved the 11:19 GMT passenger train from Scunthorpe to Lincoln Central.

The force said the Rail Accident Investigation Branch was carrying out an inquiry.

A spokeswoman from Network Rail said the man was a contractor.
