Published on

Significant disruption is impacting commuters at a major UK station this morning, leaving them stranded. London Euston is experiencing cancellations as all lines between Watford Junction and Milton Keynes Central have been halted due to a points failure. This issue is affecting routes to key stations including Liverpool Lime Street and Birmingham New Street, with disruptions expected to persist until at least 12pm.

National Rail has confirmed that the disruption caused by the points failure has been resolved. Avanti West Coast customers are advised to use their tickets at no extra cost on London Northwestern Railway trains between London Euston and Milton Keynes. Additionally, passengers whose trains are canceled can utilize Avanti West Coast services immediately before or after their scheduled departure.

Councillor Ian Stotesbury from the Callowland Ward in Watford warned of delays due to the points failure into Euston this morning. Avanti West Coast has announced that services are now operational between Milton Keynes Central and Watford Junction, although residual delays and cancellations from earlier incidents may persist.

Passengers affected by the disruption are urged to keep their train tickets as they may be entitled to compensation for delays. National Rail emphasizes the importance of documenting journeys to support any compensation claims. Delays are still expected until 12pm according to the National Rail website, with disruptions anticipated to continue until 9pm as per a social media update.

Affected routes include Avanti West Coast and London Northwestern Railway services between London Euston and various stations. London Northwestern Railway reported a points failure between Tring and Watford, warning of potential cancellations or delays to services to and from Euston. Overground tickets between Watford Junction and Euston are being accepted to mitigate the impact of the disruptions on routes to Wolverhampton, Liverpool Lime Street, Birmingham New Street, and Crewe.
