The London Underground faced major delays this morning as two lines were suspended and one line experienced minor delays. The Metropolitan line and Piccadilly line were both partially suspended, while the Elizabeth line had minor delays. The Metropolitan line had no service between Wembley Park and Aldgate due to a signal failure at Neasden, with minor delays on the rest of the line. Tickets were being accepted on London Buses. The Piccadilly line also had no service between Rayners Lane and Uxbridge due to poor rail conditions caused by significant leaf fall, but the rest of the line was operating normally. The Elizabeth line experienced minor delays between Paddington and Reading / Heathrow Airport due to a track fault at Acton Main Line, but had good service on the rest of the line.
The Metropolitan line has since been reopened after the partial suspension, but severe delays were still present across the line. Tickets were still being accepted on London Buses. Our live coverage of the disruptions on the Tube network provided updates on the situation throughout the morning.
