Published: 11:00, 27 October 2017
Trains were delayed this morning, after a lorry hit a bridge between Borough Green and West Malling.
Southeastern warned passengers of disruption on services between Otford and Maidstone East following the crash, shortly before 10.20am.
It meant trains were having to run at a reduced speed until the line was checked.
Normal service resumed shortly after 11am.
It comes a day after Network Rail revealed a list of the most frequently damaged railway bridges in Kent.
