Disruption was expected to last until at least 6pm.Earlier trains to and from Euston were affected after a train crashed into a piece of wood near Watford.

So were London Northwestern Railway services between London Euston and Tring, and Milton Keynes Central, as well as Southern trains running between East Croydon and Hemel Hempstead.
