Richmond commuters will have their journeys disrupted this morning as London Overground services face disruption between Richmond and Clapham Junction.

National Rail revealed that earlier today (Monday, 19 January) at 6:25am, a freight train broke down on the lines at Willesden Junction.

Although it has since been moved, the incident has impacted services.

National Rail said: "A broken down freight train at Willesden Junction has now been moved, allowing all lines to reopen.

"As service recovers, trains running between Stratford (London) and Richmond / Clapham Junction may still be delayed by up to 20 minutes, cancelled or revised."

The disruption between Stratford and Richmond / Clapham Junction is expected to last until 9:30am.
