Tube disruption
Meanwhile, Tube passengers endured more rush-hour travel disruption, with two lines part-suspended.
The Victoria Line was suspended between Victoria and Seven Sisters in north London. Transport for London (TfL) said the suspension was due to late-running engineering work at Finsbury Park.
Later in the rush-hour, a suspension caused by a signal failure affected the section of line between Victoria and Highbury and Islington, leading to severe delays.
London Underground's network services director Nigel Holness said: "Both problems are now resolved and we are working hard to return services to normal."
A signal failure led to the Bakerloo Line being suspended between Elephant & Castle and Lambeth North, in south London.
Delays on the Jubilee Line were caused by a faulty train at Finchley Road, in north London.
TfL said: "We apologise to customers for delays to their journeys."
