       Trains will no longer call at London Victoria, Battersea Park, Clapham Junction and Wandsworth Common.

       Passengers can still travel to London Bridge or Blackfriars - and get the bus or tube to Victoria.

       Routes from further afield - including from Southampton, Hove, Hastings and East Grinstead - are being diverted so passengers can reach the capital.

       But Clapham Junction to Milton Keynes, East Croydon to London Bridge, and Epsom to London Bridge will not run at all.

       The lines were already suspended until January 3 due to planned rail works - but this has now been extended until January 10 due to Covid.

       It comes as millions of Londoners gear up to celebrate New Year's Eve in the capital.

       On Monday, Boris Johnson confirmed no new lockdown rules will be reintroduced before January 1 thanks to the UK's triumphant jab rollout.

       But he yesterday begged the unvaccinated few to get their first, second or booster jabs NOW to ward off lockdown post-January 1 - as Omicron cases continue to soar.

       His calls follow a string of hugely positive studies which showed Omicron IS milder than other strains, with the first official UK report revealing the risk of hospitalisation is 50 to 70 per cent lower than with Delta.

       Covid booster jabs protect against Omicron and offer the best chance to get through the pandemic, health officials have repeatedly said.

       The Sun's Jabs Army campaign is helping get the vital extra vaccines in Brits' arms to ward off the need for any new restrictions.
