Disruption to Southern services on Monday 20 May 2013

Over-running engineering work is causing disruption in the Streatham Hill area.

The depot at Streatham Hill is also affected by the engineering work, and some trains will not be able to leave the depot.

Because of this, there may be delays of up to 45 minutes on several Southern routes, and the following changes apply until further notice:

Buses will replace any cancelled trains between East Grinstead and Oxted

Alternative routes where tickets will be accepted:

Southeastern services between Tonbidge and London Bridge
First Capital Connect services between East Croydon and London
London Overground betwen Norwood Junction and London
London Buses between Streatham Hill and Crystal Palace
