A cyber attack has hit public wi-fi at some of the biggest railway stations in the country.
Manchester Piccadilly, Birmingham New Street and 11 stations in London have all been affected by the attack on Wednesday.
Passengers trying to log on to the public wi-fi saw messages about terror attacks in Europe, according to reports.
The Manchester Evening News said the wi-fi webpage after the hack said, “We love you, Europe” and contained information about terror attacks.
Network Rail has suspended wi-fi services at stations across the country following what it described as a “cyber security incident”.
The only Network Rail-managed station not affected was St Pancras.
A Network Rail spokesperson said: “We are currently dealing with a cyber security incident affecting the public wi-fi at Network Rail’s managed stations.
British Transport Police are investigating the incident. “This service is provided via a third party and has been suspended while an investigation is under way.”
