THE Stourbridge Shuttle service is back on track after it was suspended earlier today after a defective railcar.
Operating between Stourbridge Town and Junction stations, the service was halted at about 10.05am today (Thursday).
But the shuttle's Twitter account has now confirmed the service is now up and running once again.
05/03 13:15 SHUTTLE UPDATE: service is now running normally. Apologies for the disruption earlier due to a fault on the railcar.

Replacement taxis were operating from outside the ticket offices at both the junction and town stations.
