Around 125 firefighters have been battling a huge blaze on an industrial estate in north London.
The fire at a mixed waste facility in Neasden is close to Wembley Stadium and sent a huge plume of smoke billowing across the sky.
The London Fire Brigade is on the scene and is warning residents to close doors and windows and remain inside where possible.
The fire at the approximately 100m by 150m industrial unit, caused the closure of the entire Metropolitan line on the Tube and the part suspension of the Jubilee line.
Major disruption to rail services to and from London Marylebone station, which was evacuated, is expected until the end of the day.
Trains are being delayed or cancelled due to lines to Aylesbury being blocked.
The LFB took the first of over 90 calls reporting the fire at 11.34am. Footage shows smoke from the fire has reduced but the LFB are yet to say it is under control.
We are suspending our live coverage of the fire in Neasden this evening.
LFB assistant commissioner Andy Pennick has called the fire “a protracted incident that will see crews on scene for the remainder of the day as the work to fully extinguish the fire.”
There is still major disruption to Tube and train services.
The Jubilee and Metropolitan lines are still both partially closed with severe delays on the rest of the line.
Rail from London Marylebone station will face delays and cancellations until the end of the evening.
