I heard something about a trackside fire at St John's and power being turned off for a while.

Plenty of delays!

I was on the 1716 from Cannon Street. We came to a stop having left London Bridge, with the driver advising of another driver having reported an explosion near St Johns. Got on the move after about 15 minutes and crawled all the way to St Johns, where a 375 was sat on the Up Fast with only emergency lighting on. Combined with various flooding incidents on the Hastings Line, it's caused a pretty terrible evening peak!

Yes I saw said 375 and a couple of orangemen on the track but my train wasnt delayed for too long. Plenty of late running and cancellations from my work back into London...

Somebody on twitter claims to have been sat half an hour on a train outside Dartford waiting for a platform.

The juice rail went bang on the up fast by Tanners Hill. I ended up finishing well late.
