Train services between London Liverpool Street and Colchester, Braintree, Clacton and Manningtree are disrupted due to the issue.
Network Rail engineers are on site investigating the fault.
Many services are likely to be cancelled, altered or delayed, or may have to run on an alternative line to allow the response team to further carry on with their investigation.
