Not to sure how its been caused as not much rain has fallen recently but this morning added to the engineering works in Miles Platting Summit Tunnel is closed in both directions due to heavy flooding in the tunnel just found this on National Rail website:

Heavy rain flooding the railway between Littleborough and Todmorden means that train services are currently unable to run between Rochdale and Todmorden. As a result, there will be no train services at Smithy Bridge, Littleborough and Walsden.
Trains will continue to run between Moston and Rochdale, and also between Todmorden and Leeds / Clitheroe. However, these services may also be subject to delays of up to 30 minutes and may be cancelled throughout.
Disruption is expected until 12:00.
Apparently shuttle buses are now running between Rochdale and Todmorden.
