The UK heatwave has cancelled Edinburgh trains to London today, causing travel chaos for Scots commuters. No trains will run beyond York, with train operators issuing stark guidance on the running of services from the capital due to the scorching temperatures.
All services from Edinburgh Waverley to London Kings Cross have been suspended from 11.30am onwards. Trains bound for London Euston are still running but the only two services that aren't yet sold out are subject to major disruption.
Journey times for passengers is expected to last over five hours, according to The Train Line website. No trains are running on the East Coast Mainline between York and London after midday either.
