All lines have reopened following a failure of the electricity supply between East Croydon and South Croydon. Trains may be cancelled, delayed by up to 10 minutes or revised as services return to normal.
This is expected until 14:00.
Customer Advice:
There have been some problems with the power supply to trains in the area of East Croydon and South Croydon.
Services are now moving, but delays have affected some Southern and Thameslink trains in the area.
Staff expect your journey might still take around 5-10 minutes longer, although not all the delays are the same.
The bulk of the delays have affected trains to & from Caterham and Tattenham Corner, but may also affect the route via Oxted, and congestion has disrupted some other trains.
You will be able to use your normal route for your journey.
