A swan on the line is disrupting trains in south west London for the second day in a row.

The swan is affecting the railway between Clapham Junction and Wimbledon.

SWR announced: "Trains have to run at a reduced speed on the line headed away from London...Disruption is expected until 11:00."

This is the second day in a row trains have been disrupted in South West London due to a swan on the train tracks.

Reports of a swan between Hampton Wick and Kingston yesterday caused almost two hours' worth of delays for commuters.

One X (Twitter) user replied to SWR's post asking if it was the same swan as yesterday and SWR said they did not think so.
