A points failure at Harrow & Wealdstone station has caused cancellations for the London Overground this afternoon (March 1), with no trains due to run until the early evening.
All London Overground services from Watford Junction have not run since around 2pm, and although disruption was initially only expected to last until 3.15pm this was subsequently extended to at least 4.15pm.

Tickets can be used on local buses via any reasonable route.
A points failure means there is a fault with the movable pieces of track which allow trains to move from one line to another.
As a result of a separate issue, the lifts are out of order between platform seven and the entrance at Watford Junction.
