<p>After &#8220;the wrong kind of snow&#8221; and &#8220;leaves on the line&#8221;, train travellers have been given a new reason for delays &#8211; dew on the tracks.</p>
<p>Given the mildness of the weather and the fact that autumn is months away, London-bound commuters on services run by the Southern train company were surprised to hear that their journeys were being delayed by &#8220;poor railhead conditions&#8221; on Wednesday. </p>
<p>A Southern spokeswoman later explained: &#8220;This is a railhead phenomenon that happens at this time of the year. </p>
<p>&#8220;Dew gets on the tracks and makes conditions difficult.&#8221;</p>
<p>The problem led to delays for some early-morning commuters from the Uckfield area of Sussex, while services from Godstone and Tonbridge in Kent were also affected.</p>
<p>To add to Southern travellers&#8217; difficulties, a signalling problem at Honor Oak Park in south east London led to delays to services in and out of London Bridge station on Wednesday. </p>
