Passengers have been advised to avoid London Waterloo station all day after a South West Trains service derailed outside the station.
The train partly left the tracks as it was pulling away from a platform at low speed at 05:40 BST, Network Rail said. Three people were checked over by London Ambulance Service but nobody was taken to hospital.
Ten platforms are already shut as part of engineering works to enlarge the station's capacity.
Network Rail said: "If you don't have to travel to Waterloo today, please don't."
South West Trains runs services to Waterloo from Exeter.
It said there would be a very limited service running to and from Waterloo "which is expected for the rest of today".
