Commuters of Southeastern have been warned that trains in and around Lewisham will be cancelled at short notice this morning.

This is because of a signalling problem in the area.

The company has said it will be releasing more information soon and we will update our story once details emerge.

One fed up train user wrote on Twitter: "Why is it always some sort of problem in Lewisham every single time. Day and night."

On Monday a signalling problem hit New Beckenham which left frustrated commuters enduring long or finding alternative transport during rush hour.

UPDATE - A National Rail statement read: "Due to a fault with the signalling system between Lewisham and Ladywell, train services running through these stations may be cancelled or delayed. Disruption is expected until 08:30."

Train tickets are being accepted on Tramlink, Southern and Underground services.
