Mildmay Line delays between Willesden Junction and Stratford on Sunday
10 August 2026 · By Boroughly editorial — AI-assisted, human-reviewed.
The Mildmay Line experienced severe delays between Willesden Junction and Stratford on Sunday morning after a trespasser was reported on the track at Gospel Oak station. TfL confirmed the disruption at around 10am, with trains running normally on the rest of the line.
During the incident, London Underground tickets were accepted on alternative services, giving affected passengers some flexibility. Gospel Oak sits on the Mildmay route that connects South Acton and Gunnersbury with stations across north and east London, so delays in this section can ripple outward for those making connections.
Chiswick residents using the Mildmay Line for onward journeys — particularly towards Hackney, Stratford or the Elizabeth Line interchange at Acton — would have faced extended journey times during the affected period. The line has seen a run of disruptions over recent weeks, including signal failures and late-night cancellations.
