Currently stuck at Ashford, zero communication about what's going on except the standard 'we are sorry' automated announcements. Anyone know any more about what's happened at Otford? RTT has lost track of the last two Charing Cross - Ashford services at Otford Junction.

Southeastern website
Alterations to services between Otford and Ashford International
Due to signalling problems between Otford and Ashford International trains have to run at reduced speed on the line.
Impact
Train services running through these stations may be delayed by up to 70 mins or revised. Disruption is expected until 22:00 08/05.
Customer Advice
Because of an earlier broken down train at Otford and now a signalling error at West Malling train services between Otford and Ashford International are experiencing heavy delays.

We'll update you here with the latest information direct from our control room. Alternatively why not download the free Southeastern On Track app from the App Store or Google play, or follow us on Twitter @Se_Railway.

If your journey with us has been delayed by 30 minutes or more, you may be entitled to compensation for a portion of your fare. Please visit http://www.southeasternrailway.co.uk/contact/delay-repay/ for details.

God help anyone still trying to get home, there's now a 'signalling error' at West Malling and another between Ashford - Ebbsfleet.

Not a good day for Southeastern today - 2 sets of points failed earlier at Sevenoaks as well.

What would a signalling error be in this case? Sounds different to signalling problems

There was a report of a broken down train at Otford earlier in addition to problems on HS1:cry:

I was delayed around there yesterday in the 1522 Ramsgate-Charing Cross service.

I was going to change at Ashford onto the HS service to St Pancras but was too comfortable.

Wish I'd have changed now!
