AÂ fault with the signalling system at Drayton Park means trains running through the station may be delayed by up to 15 minutes or diverted via London Kings Cross.
Disruption is expected until 19:00.
Customer Advice
A signalling fault in the Drayton Park area is leading to delays of up to 10 minutes to Great Northern services between Finsbury Park and Moorgate.
To reduce congestion, some trains will be diverted after leaving Finsbury Park, and will head into London Kings Cross instead. In turn, this will mean there will be some cancellations affecting northbound services departing from Moorgate this evening.
Trains which are diverted to London Kings Cross will not stop at Drayton Park, Highbury & Islington, Old Street, Essex Road or Moorgate.
Alternative trains will still be available on this route, but to help you with your journey, you can also use your ticket at no extra cost on:
- London Underground services on any reasonable route, including services on the Victoria Line between Finsbury Park and London Kings Cross / London St Pancras International
- London Buses serving stations between Finsbury Park and Moorgate
