A safety inspection on a train at Sutton means the line is disrupted. As a result of this, trains may be delayed or revised.

This is expected until 21:15.

Customer Advice

The 20:08 Sutton to Balham service is currently delayed at Sutton Platform 4.

Because of the location of this train, some Southern services may not be able to run to Epsom Downs, returning towards London from there.

These trains may terminate at Sutton or divert to Epsom instead.

- London Bus services between Sutton, Belmont and Banstead
