Customer advice

Great Northern and Thameslink

Trains in the Finsbury Park area are being delayed by up to 20 minutes.

This is due to an issue with the overhead electrical supply, affecting both Thameslink and Great Northern services.

Late-running trains may be revised. This means they may not stop at all of the usual stations, or they may terminate part of the way along their usual routes.

As a result, you may need to change trains to get to your destination.

Can you tell me more about the incident?

Unfortunately, we've been advised of a problem with the electrical supply to the trains in the Finsbury Park area. This means that some services can't move as normal until power is restored.

Network Rail are working with local electricity suppliers to make sure the power is restored. Until this is done, we expect there will be delays and changes to services in the area.

If you're on a train which is being held in the area, it may take longer for us to get you to the next station, and onwards to your destination. Please listen out for information from the crew or contact us on social media if you need further support with your journey.
