Passenger train services between London and Peterborough in England have been disrupted following the theft of railway signalling cables, according to BBC reporting. Services run by three operators are affected: LNER, Great Northern and Thameslink.

Signalling cables support the systems that control railway signals and train movements, so damage to them can affect services on the route concerned.

The source gives no further detail on where or when the theft took place, how long the delays will last, how many services have been cancelled or when repairs are expected to finish. Passengers planning to travel on this route should check the latest information from the relevant operators.
