National Rail said:A signalling problem is causing disruption between Preston and Lancaster.
Repairs are continuing well to fully restore the service, and trains are on the move through the affected area. Investigations show the problem was caused by rodents damaging cables.
Trains between Preston and Lancaster may be delayed by up to 60 minutes. These delays are expected to last until 16:00.
As quoted on the National Rail website.
Is this a common problem accross the network?
I guess with miles of cables in remote areas it certainly can happen. Guess NR does not go into specifics most of the time, but never seen a report like this.
