'A fire on the railway tracks in south-east London has shut all lines in the area sparking major disruption.

The blaze next to the track near Brockley brought trains to a standstill between Sydenham and New Cross Gate on Tuesday morning.

Network Rail has warned the fire has damaged cables that supply electricity to the railway, causing heavy disruption to trains between London Bridge and Crystal Palace

London Overground services are only running between New Cross Gate and Highbury & Islington.

Meanwhile Southern and Thameslink services running through the area may be cancelled or diverted to and from London Victoria.

Heavy disruption is expected until midday.'

    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
    • Hear hear. Very well said. Thank you and all the best for the year ahead
