Chaos at Euston Station as passengers trapped on unbearably hot trains 'with broken air conditioning' and faulty announcement system after signal failure

Commuters have warned of a 'complete chaos' and 'a dangerous crush' at Euston Station, while passengers are trapped on trains with 'broken air conditioning' following a signal failure.

The situation has been compounded by a faulty announcement system, meaning  rail bosses have not been able to fully communicate to commuters about what has happened.

London Euston has posted on X that 'Trains to/from Euston are disrupted this evening due to a fault with our signalling system in Watford' and advised passengers to check online before travelling.

The post added: 'We’re really sorry to passengers affected.'

Footage taken from inside the station shows hundreds of people standing and looking up at the announcement boards.
