Both westbound lines reportedly blocked in the Wimbledon area. I'm sat on 1323 Alton train at Waterloo and nothing has departed towards Wimbledon for the last 30 mins.

It would appear there is an electrical fault at Berrylands.

Earlier, a train may or may not have been on fire.

Some trains may be diverted via Chertsey.

Disruption is expected until 23:00 tonight. They must be confident it's going to be bad as late as they have put, as lately they haven't alwwys put a late a time as that and the disruption has lasted for longer than put.

Problems more prevalent on the fast mainline now than slow. Delays of 13 minutes.
