Southeastern has announced that the bad weather has meant they will need to change the times of some trains, and some Peak services will be busier.
Southeastern will run a Winter Weather Timetable on Friday 1 February, as bad weather is forecast.
Train times will be different and Peak services will be busier, so passengers are advised to travel earlier or later to avoid the busiest trains.
Snow is expected to start falling from Thursday evening, so travel earlier if you can to avoid the winter weather.
A spokeswoman for Southeastern said:
“When the mercury plummets, even the lightest dusting of snow or rain can freeze and insulate the electric rail. This cuts power to our trains and stops them moving with any speed. By running the Winter Weather Timetable, we enable trains to stop and start less which means they are less likely to get stuck.”
