They have been here since about 6.30am.
Several police officers are also at the scene. ....

Climate activists block railway track in coal transportation protest


A freight train passes as Extinction Rebellion activists remain chained to another track.
At one point during the protest a police officer checked to see if activists had face masks, minutes before two large freight trains passed just metres away.
While the two trains were allowed to pass via a separate track, Al Thea said if a coal train attempted to use the same method they would “try and stop it”.
