An unexploded wartime bomb, discovered near a railway line, has disrupted train services in Hampshire.
South Western Railway (SWR) said it had received reports of a wartime bomb between Sholing and Netley, near Southampton.
BBC South’s transport correspondent Paul Clifton said the railway line between Southampton and Fareham had closed.
SWR said it estimated the disruption to its services would end at 14:00 GMT.
It is understood the device was found 20 metres (65ft) from the railway line.
Services are being diverted via Botley and a cordon has been put in place.
