A construction worker has been killed at one of the Crossrail construction sites in central London.
Firefighters tried to rescue the 43-year-old after he sustained head injuries 32ft (10m) down a tunnel in Holborn earlier.
Police say the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has been informed.
The £15bn line is due to run from Maidenhead and Heathrow Airport in the west, to Abbey Wood and Shenfield in the east via central London.
The London Fire Brigade said it had sent specially trained rescue crews at about 05:40 GMT to help rescue the workman.
Ambulance crews also attended but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
A Crossrail spokesman said: "Sadly, at approximately 5am this morning a contractor working at our site in Fisher Street, London was fatally injured.
"Our first and foremost thoughts are with the family and friends affected by this. The next of kin are being informed.
"We are establishing the facts and a full investigation into the incident has commenced."
The rail route is due to open in 2018.
