Pupils make it to Windrush event after evacuation from stuck train

Party of 48 pupils and their teachers waited on train for almost three hours en route to Royal Festival Hall

Almost 50 primary school children who took part in a Windrush event in central London had to be evacuated from a train en route after being stuck in a carriage for almost three hours.

The party of 48 year five pupils and their teachers from Hatcham Temple Grove free school in Nunhead, south-east London, almost missed the chance to perform at Royal Festival Hall because of the delay.
