As a result of high temperatures across the region, speed restrictions have been imposed to protect the infrastructure on Monday 19th June. The reduced speeds prevent rails from buckling, as the lower speeds exert less pressure on the rail and they protect overhead lines, which can sag during high temperatures.
As a consequence of the slower speeds, Greater Anglia have had to reduce the train service. The following services have been cancelled or amended:

Whoever marketed Chelmsford as a commuter town (sorry, city...) was certainly an optimist...
