A man who died on a train platform has been named.
Officers were called to Hildenborough Railway Station last weekend to reports of a casualty.
British Transport Police confirmed a man had tragically been hit by a train.
George Somerset, 20, was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics.
An inquest into his death is due to go ahead at Archbishops Palace in Maidstone in November.
All services were suspended in the area for more than an hour between Tonbridge and Sevenoaks following the incident, and trains were also not able to stop at Hildenborough the following day until just before 4pm.
A British Transport Police spokesman said the incident was not being treated as suspicious.
