What We're Doing About It

We were earlier informed of a trespasser on the railway between Clapham Junction and Putney. Whilst the individual was assisted to a place of safety, power to the tracks needed to be switched off and trains were unable to run between these stations. Following this incident all lines have now reopened, however services may still be delayed, revised or cancelled whilst we recover the service to normal.
