Signal Issues? Aug 24, 2017 16:56:50 GMT via mobile

I'm currently sat on a stationary TfL Rail train between Forest Gate and Manor Park, I've just had a look on the live map of signals between a liverpool Street & Romford and every signal on the GEML between these two stations (at least) are red...anyone know why that would be?

Update 18:10, after 10 minutes of being stationary trains finally moved again. TfL Rail currently showing as Suspended - Entire Line.

Signal Issues? Aug 24, 2017 17:15:40 GMT

The TfL website reports a signalling failure in the Liverpool Street area, and a signal systems failure causing severe delays on the Goblin. Presumably the fault is a the Liverpool Street signalling centre and is affecting Woodgrange Park Junction/Manor Park Junction as well (I believe more freight is currently using this route than normal due to the derailment at Ely last week)

National Rail are reporting similar:

A fault with the signalling system between London Liverpool Street and Shenfield is causing disruption to trains between these stations.

Trains may be cancelled, delayed or revised.

Disruption is expected until 19:00.
