OVERRUNNING emergency engineering works have left commuters stranded this morning (Tuesday).

The work taking place at Alexandra Palace has meant several trains travelling through Stevenage, Hitchin and Letchworth GC have been withdrawn.

First Capital Connect apologises for any inconvenience caused to those planning to use their service.

They have said those whose trains are delayed by more than 30 minutes may be entitled to some financial compensation through their Delay Repay Scheme. Visit www.firstcapitalconnect.co.uk for more information.
