All Heathrow Express rolling stock has been taken out of service after engineers found a structural fault on one of its trains. Trains from the Heathrow Connect fleet have been deployed on the route, while the slower Connect service has been suspended. Heathrow Express services are running at the same speed and frequency as usual. But travellers were warned to expect overcrowding at peak times. [From Richard Buckby]
