A points failure in the Peckham Rye area is resulting in disruption to trains running between London Bridge / Canada Water and Tulse Hill / Denmark Hill.

Trains running between these stations may be cancelled, delayed or revised. Disruption is expected until 11:00.

London Overground Customer Advice:

Trains may be cancelled between Surrey Quays and Clapham Junction. You may use your tickets on Great Northern, Southeastern, Southern, South Western Railway and Thameslink services via any reasonable route.

An alternative route map can be found here.

Southern Customer Advice:

Please leave extra time for your journey. If your train is cancelled or severely delayed, please consider an alternative route.

The following routes are most significantly affected:

  • Services between Beckenham Junction, Crystal Palace, Tulse Hill and London Bridge

 

These services may be cancelled, diverted to run to or from London Victoria, or terminated short of the affected area:
