A massive water leak in a tunnel has disrupted traffic on the world's longest high-speed railway connecting Beijing and Guangzhou in China.
Traffic resumed today after the leak was repaired Chinese railway officials said. At least 20 trains were delayed because of the leak.
The leak was discovered around noon in a tunnel along the Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway, according to a statement issued by the Wuhan Railway Bureau.
