Incident between Dalston Junction / London Waterloo and Clapham Junction

[ricoblade]

Hi All - I’ve just seen the above incident as I’m due to travel back from Winchester to Doncaster at lunchtime.

Anyone got any more information, assume I’m going to be delayed somewhat.

Looks like normal running has been resumed between Clapham Junction and Waterloo. Doubtless there will be knock-on delays for quite a while. By lunchtime it shouldn't be too bad, hoping nothing else happens!

That’s what I wanted to here, thanks!

Yep, not sure how Dalston Junction came into it - presumably there was an Overground status message?

https://signalmaps.co.uk/#waterloo:626 shows the trains - Green is on time, moving through to Purple as severely delayed. It will take time to get the service back on time but things are at least moving.

Yes, I was wondering about the Dalston Junction reference. Dalston Junction/Waterloo to Clapham Junction makes no geographic sense. Did someone type in the wrong thing when inputting the incident to the public warning systems?

Depending where the actual location was, it might have affected SWR trains from Waterloo (Windsor side) *and* Overground trains from Dalston via East London line.

I could see why an incident on the Windsor Side (which does seem to be the worse affected) at CLJ would trigger a warning for the South & East London Line services using Platform 1. However it doesn't appear to have actually impacted them.
