Trains between Newark and Swinderby had to be cancelled from 9am onwards and a replacement bus service was put in place. Train services resumed at 1.45pm.
Network Rail engineers went to the site at Winthorpe, near Collingham, replacing the stolen cable, which is used to conduct 650 volts of electricity.
British Transport Police are investigating the theft.
