Radio fault disrupts many train services

Train services on many routes are being disrupted this morning because of a fault with the GSM-R system, which allows train drivers to talk to signallers on a radio link.

Operators mainly affected according to National Rail are ScotRail, South Western Railway, Govia Thameslink Railway and Southeastern. Some trains are running late and others may be cancelled.

Some services from Reading and London Heathrow on the Elizabeth Line are also being cancelled.

National Rail says the fault is ‘currently being investigated’.
