HAMPSTEAD Tube Station remains closed following a fault at 7am this morning which left the lifts out of service.
A spokeswoman for Transport for London said the problem was caused by power failure and that engineers were urgently investigating to get the lifts working again.

In December last year a lift at the station holding 15 terrified passengers plummeted from street level to platform level because of a power failure, although no one was hurt.
