The hot weather is continuing to cause delays to Northern Ireland's trains. Fears that railway tracks could buckle in the heat prompted Translink to introduce speed restrictions. As the UK basks in the heatwave, the ground temperature is also increasing and Translink recorded a high of approximately 50C on Wednesday. As a precaution they reduced the speed of trains on the network resulting in widespread delays.
