PASSENGERS are facing severe disruptions to train services in south Essex following a fire incident next to the track.
It has been reported that due to a fire incident between Barking and West Ham High Level the line is blocked.
As a result, train services running across the whole c2c network will be cancelled, delayed by up to 30 minutes or revised.
Disruption is expected until 2.45pm.
A spokesman for c2c said: "Greater Anglia are conveying passengers via any reasonable route until further notice.
"London Overground and London Underground are conveying passengers via any reasonable route until further notice.
"If your journey has been disrupted by more than 15 minutes, you may be entitled to cash compensation.
"Please visit the c2c website and search 'Delay Repay' for information on how to claim."
