Police are probing a cyberattack on Wi-Fi networks at UK train stations

U.K. transport officials and police said Thursday they are investigating a "cyber-security incident" that hit the public Wi-Fi networks at the country's biggest railway stations.

Network Rail, which manages the stations, said the Wi-Fi had been switched off and no passenger data was taken.

"British Transport Police are investigating the incident," Network Rail said in a statement. "This service is provided via a third party and has been suspended while an investigation is under way."

The incident follows a more disruptive cyberattack in early September on Transport for London, which runs the capital's bus, subway and suburban train system.
