A major signalling problem in the Waterloo area means a significantly reduced service will operate to and from London Waterloo today.
Peter Williams, SWR’s customer and commercial director, said: “We are very sorry for the disruption this morning.
“While the problem is in the Waterloo area we do expect the wider network to be affected as trains and their crews will be displaced.
“If you are travelling on the wider network please check before you travel using a journey planner. Once again we’re sorry for the disruption.”
