Widespread disruption due to the tunnel into Marylebone being shut for safety reasons and specialists required to sort the problem out.  Looks like most of the morning will be affected at the very least.

"Defect in a tunnel" is an unusual one for that line.

Loose bricks, apparently. The line's now open, so presumably someone popped them back into place.
