A woman has been charged with trespassing on the railway.

British Transport Police attended after reports of a woman on the tracks in Chatham on June 15.

Lacey Dyer, 44, of Alamein Gardens in Dartford was charged with trespassing and is due to appear at Sevenoaks Magistrates Court on July 5.

Southeastern said trains were halted for a short while, as the electric current had to be switched off while the trespasser was on the line.
