A failure of the electricity supply between Ashford International and Ebbsfleet International means trains running between these stations may be delayed by up to 10 minutes.
Disruption is expected until the end of the day.
Whatâs Happened?
Last night, the power supply for our high speed trains failed between Ashford International station and the High Speed line.
Response staff were able to restore power to one of the 2 lines and platform 5, but were unable to complete repairs to reopen the other line and allow High Speed trains to use platform 6.
Further repairs are expected to take place tonight to reopen the other line.
How does this affect my journey?
High Speed trains via Ashford may be delayed by up to 10 minutes arriving into Ashford International waiting for open line and platform to be cleared by the previous train.
What do I need to do?
