Trains on a line from St Albans Abbey are expected to be disrupted until the end of the day.

A fault on an Abbey Line train which runs between the station and Watford Junction means that services throughout the day could face cancellations.

National Rail has confirmed the 2.35pm, 2.49pm, and 3.05pm departures from St Albans Abbey will not run and it appears likely more will be cancelled later.

No information on rail replacement services has been confirmed so far. Abbey Line tickets can typically be used on the 321 bus service during disruption.

Trains on the line will also finish earlier tomorrow and the services will not run on Christmas Day or Boxing Day.

“You may be entitled to compensation if you experience a delay in completing your journey today,” National Rail has said.

“Please keep your train ticket and make a note of your journey, as both will be required to support any claim.”
