“Absolute chaos” ensued at London’s Paddington Station after trespassers took to the tracks and caused delays to trains tonight during Notting Hill Carnival.
Passengers at the station posted photos showing large crowds gathering on the platforms and uniformed police on site as services are hit by delays.
National Rail said at least one train had been cancelled and two more had been delayed due to “trespassers on the railway”.
Underground services for Heathrow Airport on the Elizabeth Line appear to be particularly affected, as do train services heading southwest.
