Quite a lot of issues occurring across the rail network, up and down the country, due to flooding and trees on the line.
Just now, Cross Country have suspended their Birmingham to Plymouth/South West services due to multiple weather related incidents.
Also, anyone travelling to/from London this afternoon and evening, your journey is likely to be disrupted as the Met Office have issued an Amber Weather Warning for strong winds for The South East, Home Counties and East Anglia.

A spell of very strong winds, already having affected southwest England, will move eastwards across parts of south Wales, southern England, the south Midlands and East Anglia during the afternoon and evening. Gusts of 70-80 mph are likely on exposed coasts in the west. Inland, gusts of 50-60 mph are more probable, but perhaps briefly 60-70 mph in one or two places.
