Description
A speed restriction over a defective track between Berkhamsted and Cheddington means that trains have to run at a reduced speed on the line towards Milton Keynes Central. There is an additional track defect between London Euston and Watford Junction.
As a result, trains running between London Euston and Milton Keynes Central may be cancelled, delayed by up to 10 minutes or revised.
This is expected until the end of the day.

London Northwestern Railway customer advice:
Until 12:00 you can use your ticket at no extra cost on London Overground services between London Euston and Watford Junction.
