On April 30th, Farringdon station in London is closed right now over a suspected gas leak, and it's messing with train services across the area. British transport police got the call around 9.42 this morning, British summertime, after a few passengers started feeling unwell. The whole place got evacuated quick, with cops, ambulances, and firefighters on site checking it out. No trains are running through Farringdon until after midday, according to National Rail, so expect delays if that's your route. Tamsling services are hit hard, pulling them from the station entirely for now. A handful of folks reported filling off, but emergency crews are handling medical checks while they investigate the leak. Travelers are feeling the pinch during rush hour, scrambling for options. Tamsling is telling passengers to head to City Tamsling via the whole-born exit, or London St. Pancras International instead. Elizabeth Line riders can hop on free London buses to bridge the gap. Keep an eye on apps for updates as crews wrap this up. Stay safe out there,

and plan alternate paths to beat the chaos.
