Tube train derails in rush hour

A London Underground (LU) train has derailed during the morning rush
hour, police have said.

Up to six carriages came off the rails on the westbound Central Line
between Mile End and Bethnal Green stations at about 0900 BST.

There are no reports of injuries, according to a British Transport
Police (BTP) spokesman.

Central Line services are suspended between Leytonstone and Liverpool
Street, causing minor delays.

LU report timed at 10:12: "CENTRAL LINE: Suspended between Leytonstone and
Liverpool Street due to a derailed train in the Mile End area. Severe delays
are occurring on the rest of the line." Also that Mile End ststion has been
