A person has been seriously injured after being hit by a train on the Ipswich to London line.
The British Transport Police (BTP) were called to an area of the line in Colchester around 9.30am to reports of a casualty on the tracks.
The main line was closed as emergency services attended the scene, which affected rail services between Ipswich and the capital city.
A spokesman for BTP said: "Officers attended along with paramedics and a person was taken to hospital with life-changing injuries.
"The incident is not being treated as suspicious."
Greater Anglia said the Intercity line has reopened although disruption is expected until further notice.
