The roof of Ravenscourt Park London Underground station has blown onto the tracks during high winds.

Rail users have posted shocking images online of the moment the roof was apparently picked up by the wind and blown onto the tracks around 8.50pm on Tuesday (January 14).

The Piccadilly Line and District Line were facing delays as the obstruction from the track at Ravenscourt Park.

Eyewitness Sam Rodriguez described the 'smoke and flames' after the incident and captured this picture of the aftermath.

One Tube user online described the roof 'arcing on the tracks and causing havoc'.

He added: "No injuries. Just a huge mess."

This station is closed while Transport for London removes the obstruction from the track.

As of 10.50pm on Tuesday night, there is no service between Earls Court and Ealing Broadway/Richmond on the District Line.
