Train services to and from Heathrow Airport restarted after a burst pipe caused flooding and signal failures on the Elizabeth Line and Heathrow Express. TfL confirmed services resumed shortly after midday once maintenance teams isolated the leak. Passengers were advised by Network Rail to check schedules, as trains may still be cancelled or revised
Trains services restarted to and from Heathrow Airport after passengers faced hours of travel disruption following a burst pipe that disrupted train services on Saturday.
Transport for London (TfL) said there were no services on the Elizabeth Line between Hayes and Harlington and Heathrow due to a signal failure caused by flooding at Heathrow Terminals 2 and 3 after 6 am this morning, reported British newspaper The Independent. The Heathrow Express was also affected.
Services restarted shortly after midday after Heathrow’s infrastructure maintenance teams isolated the leaking water pipe, allowing trains to resume services.
"Services are now starting to resume on the Elizabeth Line and Heathrow Express. Please allow extra time when travelling due to the earlier incident. We apologise for any inconvenience caused," Heathrow Airport posted on X.
