A derailed freight train is still causing delays for Kent rail commuters - hours after it came off the rails.

Three wagons came off the tracks as the empty train travelled from Greenwich to Charlton at around 12.15pm yesterday.

But there was still disruption today between Charing Cross and Gillingham.

Tickets are being accepted on London Underground and DLR services, but trains aren't running between Lewisham & Charlton.

Network Rail tweeted: "We are working to move the derailed wagons as soon as possible, however once they are moved, repairs will also need to be made to the railway.

"An investigation has begun into the causes of the derailment."
