UPDATE: Trains now running between Nottingham and London again after a day of disruption

Rail services have finally resumed between Nottingham and London St Pancras after a day of cancellations and disruption caused by a knock-on effect of yesterday’s hot weather.

East Midlands Railway (EMR) had originally been hoping to get London services running again from 10am today after track safety inspections had taken place on the line between Kettering and London.

The inspections were completed – however, due to ongoing disruption around London, no services were able to leave St Pancras for several hours.

This led to delays, cancellations and crowded station concourses and platforms.

"We are unable to run any trains on our connect route for the remainder of the day.”

On it’s website, EMR added that it expected to return to its normal timetable tomorrow (Thursday, July 21) and that passengers who had tickets for today for cancelled services will be able to use them on services tomorrow instead.

However, anyone unable, or not wanting to complete their journey tomorrow will be able to claim refund – details about doing that are here.
