Southeastern trains are now running normally again after earlier disruption caused by a trespasser at Elephant and Castle.
Southeastern Railway has confirmed that all lines have now reopened following the incident earlier today. Services between London and Kent destinations have resumed their normal timetables, and trains are operating without further delays related to this incident.
The disruption was caused by a trespasser on the line at Elephant and Castle, which led to temporary cancellations and delays to Southeastern services using this route. Network Rail personnel and British Transport Police responded swiftly to resolve the situation and allow trains to resume normal operations.
Passengers who were affected and experienced delays of 15 minutes or more are eligible to claim compensation through Southeastern’s Delay Repay scheme. Claims can be submitted online through the official Southeastern Railway website, and eligible passengers may receive a refund or voucher depending on the severity of their delay.
