  Chicken delays train passengers

  
  

  Rail passengers were delayed when their 125mph express was damaged in a collision with a chicken.

  
  

  Passengers had to wait on the platform at Swindon, Wilts, while firemen and railway workers carried out repairs and safety checks.

  
  

  They found the bird had damaged a fuel line on the 5.30pm Paddington to Swansea Great Western train.
