Derailment leads to delays on Tramlink

Tram services on London Tramlink were delayed during the evening rush hour on Thursday 29th August after a reported derailment at Phipps Bridge. As with a previous derailment earlier in 2019 Transport for London’s official Twitter feed again described this as a “faulty tram” but local media reported that there was a derailed tram. No more details of the nature of the derailment are known or which tram was involved. Whilst the tram was attended to no services were able to run between Morden Road and Mitcham Junction. This disruption happened at the same time as engineering works were seeing no trams beyond East Croydon to Beckenham Junction, Elmers End or New Addington.
