Yahoo News TfL Jubilee line delays: Commuters hit with rush hour chaos over faulty London Underground trains
Commuters have been hit with morning rush hour chaos on the Tube after a large part of the Jubilee line was suspended due to faulty trains.
There was no service between the busy Waterloo station and Neasden, which TfL said was due to an “unavailability of trains”.
It warned customers of severe delays across the entire line.
On Twitter, the Jubilee line account said that a fault had been found with some trains during safety inspections yesterday, meaning they had to be removed from service.
⚠ No service between Neasden and Waterloo only, due to the temporary unavailability of trains. Severe delays on the rest.
