Quote Due to a landslip between Guildford and Redhill the line is blocked. Train services running through these stations will be cancelled or delayed by up to 60 minutes. Disruption is expected until 11:00 20/12. There are some photos of the scene near Guildford in the following article: https://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-news/live-guildford-swr-delays-cancellations-17451036 (https://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-news/live-guildford-swr-delays-cancellations-17451036) Title: Re: Landslip between Guildford and Redhill - 20/12/19 Post by: BBM on December 20, 2019, 09:56:20 GWR has tweeted a similar photo of the landslip (believed to be just south of Guildford station):
