Trains from Brighton towards London have been suspended due to a power outage.
Gatwick Express services to and from London Victoria have been halted after a “failure of electricity supply” between the station and Clapham Junction.
Lines in London have been blocked as a result meaning that the service cannot run in Brighton and Sussex.

A spokesman for Govia Thameslink, who run Gatwick Express services, said on Twitter: “Due to failure of the electricity supply between Clapham Junction and London Victoria some lines towards London Victoria are blocked.
“Gatwick Express services are currently suspended.”
Other services on the Brighton mainline, including Southern and Thameslink trains, are unaffected with passengers able to travel on other routes at no extra cost.
