Severe delays on Windrush Line
Transport for London's (TfL) journey planner says there is no service on the line 'while emergency services deal with a casualty on the track'.
This would suggest there was 'two incidents' by Canada Water, as it sits on the Windrush Line.
MyLondon has approached the British Transport Police (BTP) for confirmation.

Where is the incident unfolding?
It isn't exactly clear where the incident has happened, but a witness told us it was by Canada Water Station. This would suggest it's happened on - or near - Surray Quays Road. However we have approached all three of the emergency services for confirmation.
There have also been reports of an unfolding incident in Surrey Quays Station. We have also approached the emergency services for information on whether this is a seperate incident or not.
