Crews from Wisbech and March along with the north roaming fire appliance all attended and helped make the scene safe before handing over to Network Rail.

They left the area at around 11am.

Paramedics treated the drivers of both the train and the tractor for minor injuries.

A spokesperson for British Transport Police said: "The drivers of the train and tractor were checked over by paramedics at the scene for minor injuries. Thankfully no-one has sustained any serious injuries."
