Fire closes bus and Tube stationsA fire that broke out in building in Hammersmith, west London, has disrupted bus and Tube services.A fire brigade spokesman said the blaze began in an electrical sub-station on the 6th floor of the Coca Cola building in Queen Caroline Street. About 25 fire fighters tackled the fire - now under control - while flames were seen coming out of the roof. The bus station and one of two Tube stations were closed as a precaution. The Tube station was later reopened. Police said no residents were affected. The District and Piccadilly line station was closed for a few hours, while the Hammersmith & City line station was unaffected. Transport for London said buses continued to run but were being diverted around the bus station, which was also closed. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7994209.stm |
