The Metropolitan line had minor delays between Harrow-on-the-Hill and Moor Park due to points failure at Moor Park.

On the Piccadilly line there were minor delays between Acton Town and Heathrow Airport / Uxbridge due to "train cancellations".

The London Overground was suspended between Willesden Junction and Shepherd's Bush due to a train derailment on the weekend.
