A signalling problem at London Victoria and trespasser at London Bridge caused major delays to trains across south east London and north Kent today (October 15).

Trains affected included those travelling between London Victoria and Orpington, Dartford and Ashford International.

Those between London Victoria and Dartford were suspended, in both directions, for several hours.

The other services, to and from London Victoria, suffered from cancellations, delays and diversions to London Blackfriars.

Meanwhile a train fault and trespasser caused services to and from London Bridge to be cancelled, delayed and revised.
