The blue Vauxhall Cavalier, registration H773SKU, was a Railtrack employee's vehicle and contained a number of detonators used in his work.
Railtrack has said the devices, which were in a green container, present only "a low-level danger" to members of the public, but could be dangerous if handled incorrectly.
Police said the devices are known as "railway fog signals", which are attached to the track to warn maintenance crews working next to the line of approaching trains.
