Train operator affected London Overground
Description
Overhead wire problems are causing disruption near Willesden Junction.

Because of this, the following changes will apply until further
notice:
There are currently no trains between Willesden Junction and Clapham
Junction
There are currently no trains between Stratford and Richmond
Journeys may be delayed by up to 60 minutes

Passengers may use London Underground services on all reasonable
routes.

And it is still ongoing with trains seemingly now running via Primrose
Road between Camden Rd and Willesden Junction. Trains aren't serving
trains west of Kentish Town West. Whatever brought the wires down at
Willesden did a good job if it can't be fixed overnight.

National Rail were saying last night that they hoped to have it fixed by
this morning. It sounds as if they re-opened the line but a train
brought the wires down again. Latest tweet says "Repairs to overhead
line will start after 9am - once we've moved the trapped train."

It's even affecting GOBLIN (which was partly suspended anyway for
engineering work today), presumably because they can't get the DMUs to
Gospel Oak.
