Default Thameslink North South connections

In message , at 19:33:37 on Sun, 31 Jul
2011, Peter Smyth remarked:
I'm assuming that the Thameslink trains will take over the London
Bridge to Horsham stoppers. What about the other end? If they form
what is now the King's Cross to Cambridge stopper then Meldreth,
Shepreth and Foxton platforms will need to be extended to eight car length.


The relevant section of the table explains the Cambridge and
Peterborough services will run 'semi-fast' on the northern part of
the route.

As I said in the first post there is more info in the original, but a
number of routes are stopping one side of the Thames and semi fast the
other, and vice versa...


"semi-fast" is a relative term though. It might just mean that they
will not be stopping at the inner suburban stations.


And if that's not what it means, will (as Colin suggests) the "stoppers
at everywhere north of Welwyn Garden City" run into KX not Thameslink?
