National Rail confirmed there was disruption on the London Overground yesterday (Monday, 2 February), affecting services between Stratford and Clapham Junction / Richmond.

The disruption began at around 2.30pm and continued until 9.14pm, impacting the London Overground Mildmay line and causing delays and cancellations for passengers travelling across the route during the evening peak.

In an update issued later in the day, National Rail said: "Trains are now running normally following a shortage of train crew at Willesden Junction."

Services gradually returned to normal after the issue was resolved, with no further problems reported by the end of the evening.
