All trains between Leagrave and Flitwick were forced to use the slow/stopping lines while the track was cleared.
National Rail said: "We had reports of a train hitting an obstruction on the fast line just before Leagrave. After inspecting the line it was found to be a landslip. This has closed one of the lines until cleared."
