Videos posted to social media show the fire blazing and send plumes of black smoke across the train tracks.
While one clip appears to be filmed from another train going through the station on an unaffected line at a slow speed.
The fire service are in attendance and a spokesperson for the train provider said Network Rail is working to move trains between Charing Cross and London Bridge into platforms as soon as possible.
Travellers are being diverted to alternative stations where possible and have been told their tickets will be accepted on London Underground and London Bus services at no extra cost.
Network Rail Kent & Sussex tweeted: ‘We are sorry for the disruption to @Se_Railway passengers travelling into and out of London Bridge while @LondonFire deal with a track side fire. All lines are currently blocked.’
