Major railway line issues 'do not travel' message
A major railway line has urged customers not to travel on the morning of Monday, July, 21 following a significant signalling failure at London Waterloo, which has caused widespread disruption across the South Western Railway (SWR) network. The fault has left Platforms 1 to 14 unusable at the capital's busiest rail station, severely limiting the number of trains that can operate in and out of central London. As a result, trains and crew are now displaced across the network, triggering knock-on delays and cancellations. In a statement issued this morning, a SWR spokesperson said: "Due to a major signalling failure at London Waterloo, please do not travel on our services this morning. READ MORE: Rail line to shut for ten days over safety concerns READ MORE: Car with child passenger crashes into telephone pole shutting road for hours "The failure of the equipment that routes trains in and out of the station means we cannot use Platforms 1 to 14 at London Waterloo at this time, significantly limiting capacity. "Engineers are on site attempting to restore the use of the platforms, but with very few trains able to move in and out of London Waterloo and trains and crew already displaced, services across the network are severely disrupted. "While we are hoping to restore some services later in the day, these are still likely to be subject to delays and alterations." SWR and Network Rail went on to apologise for the disruption and is urging passengers to avoid travel on SWR services for now. While technicians work to resolve the issue, no estimated time for full restoration has been given.
