The company said: “The latest weather forecast for tomorrow suggests significant snowfall across many parts of the Southern network.
“In preparation for this Southern will be operating an amended timetable for Friday 18 January.
“Trains will not split or join at Haywards Heath and will mean passengers who travel on the East and West Coastways into and out of London may be affected.
