Trains are being delayed or cancelled due to an object getting caught on the overhead lines.
Trains on the c2c line cannot get through between London Fenchurch Street and Barking.
Because of a tree on the overhead power lines near Limehouse, no c2c services are currently running between Fenchurch Street and Barking. If you can, get to Barking or Upminster to continue your journey. Find out more here: https://t.co/drTUaZO6IA

Train services running across the whole c2c network will be cancelled, delayed by up to 20 minutes or terminated at and started back from Barking.
All stations between London Fenchurch Street and Barking will not be served.
How big is the tree? Are we talking Oak or Bonsai? Is it something Geoff can remove on his step ladder or do you need to call the Avengers? Trying to get an idea of how long this will take. Thanks
