no, its not just saying there are problems. The real time map states exactly (when you move the mouse over it) which lines or parts of them are completely closed and when. I suggest you use one thats not affected, to go close to Victoria and then you walk or use a taxi.

Demetre, if you're going from Wood Greek (i'll assume that's your jump-off point), I would probably choose this route.

Wood Greek-Finsbury Park on Piccadily Line
Change at Finsbury Park and get on Victoria Line
Change at Warren Street for Northern Line
Get off at Embankment

Knowing where the bombs were, that route should be ok. I believe Victoria line through Kings Cross should be ok as the two lines are some distance apart and Piccadily is far deeper.

Wrong answer!

Rail replacement service between Wood Green and Finsbury Park.

I speak from experience as I used a bus this morning beween said route.
