Many of the routes affected are operated by Southern Rail, which runs services to several towns in west Kent.

The train company blames "severe congestion" for the delays and cancellations, and is offering alternative routes to stranded commuters.

Other train companies including Thames Link and South West Trains are accepting Southern Rail tickets on "reasonable" routes.
