Westbound tube trains were not stopping at Victoria or Mansion House underground stations this evening due to flooding.

People were not allowed off Circle line trains, instead being carried straight through and told to make other arrangements.

Metro reporter Toby Meyjes was on the scene, and saw staff dealing with water on the platforms and the stairs closed to passengers.

‘I think the nearest i can get is Sloane Square,’ he said.
