Travel chaos in central London as casualty on tracks causes severe Tube disruption
Commuters in central London were thrown into chaos on Wednesday afternoon due to a casualty on the tracks.
The District, Circle, and Hammersmith & City lines were all part suspended from around 5.30pm while emergency services dealt with the customer incident around Cannon Street.
As of 7pm, the lines had all reopened but were operating with severe delays.
Meanwhile, Southeastern mainline National Rail services faced residual crowding and short-notice platform changes due to the ongoing emergency response.
It came amid further Tube chaos on Wednesday, with the Mildmay line severely delayed by a faulty train at Willesden Junction and the Piccadilly line shut all day between Cockfosters and Uxbridge.
