Appeared on web site in only the last 30 mins, it was not there when I
checked at 10:20:


Major disruption
Monday morning service


Thameslink route

They've adopted the emergency timetable on the GN. I'm on the 15:06 (2C20)
to Cambridge. Finsbury Park, Potter's Bar, Hatfield, then all stations to
Royston, then Cambridge.

Meanwhile "Live Departures" is a bigger work of fiction than normal,
showing a completely different set of GN trains. As I was leaving the
Cross, it was showing Cambridge departures, all "on time" at 15:15, 15:45,
15:52 and 16:06 and departures from Cambridge at 15:15, 15:26, 15:45 and
15:55.

Passenger Focus are right. Once disruption comes the fragmented railway
becomes completely dysfunctional.
