National Rail confirmed on X (formerly known as Twitter) that all services were disrupted just after 7:30 PM today (August 6).
Impact on Services
The fire alarm alert has caused significant disruption to trains to and from the station, with cancellations and delays of up to 60 minutes expected until the end of the day. While London Victoria was closed temporarily, it has since reopened as the situation was managed.

In a statement to commuters, National Rail said: “We now recommend you use an alternative route, if you can. In particular, if you are able to use London Bridge as an alternative, please do so.”
Ongoing Delays
Despite the station’s reopening, train services continue to experience cancellations and delays. Commuters are advised to check the status of their trains and consider alternative routes to avoid further inconvenience.
Investigation
We have reached out to British Transport Police for further information regarding the incident and the cause of the fire alarm alert. Updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
This disruption has highlighted the importance of emergency preparedness and the efficiency of evacuation procedures at one of London’s busiest railway stations. Commuters are urged to stay informed through National Rail’s updates on social media and their website.
