UPDATE: St Pancras Rail Disruption Cleared for Southeastern Services

⚠️ RAIL DISRUPTION

Services have resumed following the earlier broken down train at London St Pancras International, though passengers may still experience minor delays as operations return to normal.

A train that broke down outside London St Pancras International earlier this morning has now been moved, and all lines have now reopened. Southeastern services running to and from this major London hub were significantly impacted during the incident, with trains unable to depart from the station whilst the blockage was cleared.

Whilst the broken down train has been removed, services are still working to return to normal operating schedules. Trains starting at London St Pancras International are now able to depart, but passengers should be aware that delays and alterations may continue whilst the network stabilises. The disruption was expected to clear by 10:15 this morning.

If you were delayed by 15 minutes or more during this incident, you are entitled to claim compensation through the delay repay scheme. Southeastern encourages all affected passengers to submit their claims to receive the appropriate refund or voucher for the inconvenience caused.

For the most up-to-date travel information, passengers should check the live departures page on the Southeastern website before travelling, or allow extra time when making their journey as services continue to recover from the disruption.
