⚠️ We're really sorry that @Se_Railway passengers in #Lewisham have had a disrupted morning after an electrical fault caused a train to lose power near #TannersHill. This picture shows the problem clearly. ⬇️ /1
Traction power supply cables are attached to the live rail using metal bolts called lugs. In this instance something has caused an arc to start and it's burned through the lug and cut the power to the line. A train was approaching at the time and it was stranded as a result. /2
This screenshot shows the location when the train (called 2U56) was trapped on the line between #Lewisham and #Nunhead. We worked with @Se_Railway to rescue passengers using a side-to-side evacuation bridge between trains, and they were taken back to Lewisham. /3
