TRAVELLERS are facing misery as the railway between Southampton and Bournemouth floods.

Due to heavy rain flooding the South Western mainline between Southampton Central and Bournemouth all lines are blocked.

Train services running through these stations may be cancelled, delayed or revised, according to South Western Railway.

The disruption is expected until 10am.

A statement on the operator's website says: "For further information or onward travel advice please speak to a member of staff or use a station help point.

We are very sorry for any delay that this may cause to your journey."

It comes after Storm Bella lashed the South Coast last night and early this morning.

An amber warning for wind was issued with the Met Office predicting disruption to travel and utilities over parts of England today.
