๐ As a driver reported a potential defect with the track, services have to run at reduced speeds through the area, which is the reason for the delays.
๐ ๏ธ Network Rail engineers are now on site, and will wait for a gap between trains before accessing the track.
๐ You will be able to travel using your normal route. However, you should leave up to 10 minutes extra to complete your journey.
๐ If you're travelling through this area, you should check journey planners at https://t.co/Cm0EIAna6j before you travel.
โน๏ธ This issue is ongoing, and minor delays continue to affect southbound services.
๐ You can find the latest updates for this incident here: https://t.co/M5BspAjrO9
โ ๏ธ Due to a points failure between Purley and Gatwick Airport...
๐ Services running between these stations will be delayed or revised.
โน๏ธ More information to follow...
๐ฃ๏ธ If the issue worsens, this plan may change, and engineers may look to access the track during the day, looking to impact services as little as possible when they do so.
