Police at the traveller site in Streethay

A number of caravans have appeared alongside the West Coast Main Line in Streethay in the past week on land previously used as part of the four-tracking project of the stretch of railway.

But officers from British Transport Police, assisted by Staffordshire Police have this morning (April 20) attempted to move the travellers on.
