There is a fault with the signalling system and heavy rain which has flooded the railway, at Kettering North Junction. This is between Leicester and Kettering is disrupting our trains on the Sheffield/Nottingham/London St Pancras route.
Â
Network Rail have a team looking into the fault and also are monitoring the water levels, as a result our trains will run at reduced speed.
Â
How does this affect my train?
Â
Trains running through the area between Leicester and Kettering will be delayed up to 20 minutes.
