A cyclist carrying golf clubs caused delays for commuters this morning after walking his bike on to a major railway line.
The man was spotted close to Bethnal Green station in east London shortly after 9am this morning.
A 31-year-old man was later arrested on suspicion of trespassing by police.
Twitter user Jamie Walton posted a picture of the bizarre incident online.
He said: "Walking down the train line with a push bike and a set of golf clubs outside Liverpool street, as you do!"
The incident caused delays to Greater Anglia train services from Liverpool Street station.
A British Transport Police (BTP) spokesman said: “Our officers were called to Liverpool Street station at 9.22am on Tuesday, 19 August, after a report of a man cycling on the railway line.
“They carried out a search of the track, assisted by staff from Network Rail.
“A 31-year-old man was arrested for trespass and obstructing trains close to Bethnal Green railway station.
“The line was handed back to Network Rail at 9.49am.”
