Passengers faced an unusual obstacle to their journey when a trampoline crashed onto to the tracks in Bushey.
The unexpected hurdle was noticed by people travelling on the train between Watford and London around 11.30am this morning (Friday, February 18).
London Euston shared a picture of the trampoline on its twitter page as it urged people to not travel amid high winds caused by Storm Eunice.
London Northwestern Railway is among many train service providers to have issued a ‘Do Not Travel’ message, with many services disrupted due to the storm.

Jacqueline Starr, Chief Executive Officer at the Rail Delivery Group said: “Storm Eunice is causing widespread damage and we’ve had to respond by closing lines to keep our customers and staff safe.
“We’re telling people not to travel today and instead to claim a fee-free refund or use their ticket over the weekend. We are urging people to continue to check before they travel as we clear up after the storm.”
Rail companies are urging people to check before they travel over the weekend as disruption will continue into Saturday.
