National Rail says it is investigating a fault with an emergency radio system used to communicate with drivers.
A major disruption on the UK's rail network has caused delays on at least nine lines on Friday morning.
Network Rail said the issue is mainly affecting trains at the start or end of the day, which a spokesperson said was "causing a few minutes of delay at the start of the day". Most passengers on these lines will be able to travel on their normal route, National Rail has said. Disruption is currently expected to continue until further notice.
