A blaze at a recycling plant in south London has caused major rail disruption in the area, Network rail has said.
About 100 firefighters were called to Landmann Way, Bermondsey, just after 17:30 BST. Fifteen engines and turntable ladders were being used to tackle the flames from above, London Fire Brigade said.
Images posted on social media show large clouds of smoke rising into the air. Residents have been advised to keep their windows and doors closed.
Rail services in and out of London Bridge, including some by Southeastern and Thameslink, are expected to face disruption until at least 22:30, Network Rail said.

"Due to the significant amount of smoke in the area, local residents are advised to keep their windows and doors closed."
He said residents should pour water on loose embers if close to their properties and "don't hesitate to call 999" if they catch something alight.
