The cause is not yet known. It follows a number of trains being taken out of service after cracked parts were discovered.

EDIT: The station has since closed for an apparently separate reason – a fire alert.

🚉North Greenwich: The station is closed while we respond to a fire alert.

🎫 Tickets will be accepted on the buses either side of the station.

ℹ️ We'll update you all when the station re-opens.
