Description

A fault with the signalling system between London Victoria and Clapham Junction means trains have to run at a reduced speed on some lines towards Clapham Junction.

As a result, trains may be delayed by up to 15 minutes or revised.

Disruption is expected until 23:00.

Customer advice:

Some Southern and Gatwick Express services will be delayed in the London Victoria area.

A signalling problem is causing some departures from this station to be delayed.

In turn, some trains are having to wait longer to arrive at the station, as there is congestion affecting the platforms.

We expect your journey will take around 10-15 minutes longer than usual in this area, but you can use your normal route. Delays will vary, and not all trains will be affected equally.

Also, there will be some service changes, which means that some delayed trains may not stop at all the usual stations, and others may not complete their full journeys. This may also add extra time to your journey.

We are keeping our online journey planning tools up to date with any changes which will affect your journey. When travelling, please also check station screens and listen to announcements.
