Metlink says it's currently attempting to source buses to replace the trains, and trains will remain suspended until further notice.
All of the Greater Wellington train lines are affected by the signal failure.
Buses were expected to arrive shortly.
A worker at Wellington Station said the fault is between Wellington and Kaiwharawhara.
Karen Shaw says her daughter's commute to Porirua for her course has been delayed as a result of the signal fault.
