   Power restored to London and southeast England after National Grid failure   
   Full story:   
      
      
   London (CNN)Trains ground to a halt, homes went dark and cars wandered   
   through intersections without functioning traffic lights as large   
   swathes of London and southern England temporarily lost power Friday.   
      
   All power has now been restored, according to UK Power Networks and to   
   Western Power Distribution, which serves power to the Midlands, the   
   South West region and Wales.   
      
   UK Power Networks tweeted that the outages were "due to an issue on the   
   national transmission network," adding, "we believe all supplies have   
   been restored."   
      
   Earlier in the day, the country's National Grid Electricity System   
   Operator tweeted about "issues" with two power generators.
