Which reminds me of he story of sun stopping trains - Services at Lewisham, south-east London, were disrupted because of the angle of the 'low winter' sun, train operator Southeastern said.

The rail firm posted on Twitter: 'We had severe congestion through Lewisham due to dispatching issues as a result of strong sunlight.'

It added: 'The low winter sun has been hitting the dispatch monitor which prevents the driver from being able to see.'
