Traveling to London today? If you are, or you are already there take note: An explosion was heard at Liverpool St tube station this morning

Apparently there is no train or tube services in London at the moment and I've just heard from gnommi that now buses have started exploding. At present all the talk is of a power surge/outrage but this seems increasingly unlikely.

More news as I get it.

Edit Explosions have occurred at Aldgate, Edgware Road, King's Cross, Old Street and Russell Square stations. Three buses have exploded. Apparently South Kensington and another tube station have just had explosions as well. Many injuries, some quite severe by all accounts.

Its not a power surge! Fucking, fucking hell! Not again

Edit The Second Mobile masts are also down in London so if you need to contact loved ones. Land line or email is your best option.

The news here said they were querying a crash. Seems like something they would know one way or the other, so I'm not sure where the uncertainty comes from in the reports. Unless they're pulling it out of their collective asses.

No crash..

..as far as I'm aware from friends in London. Just lots of explosions. Several buses now as well as several tube stations.

No tube or rail services at all. I suspect terrorist action of some kind.
