From 2018, it will again be possible to travel from Farringdon to
Finsbury Park, as that route is one of the extensions being implemented

in the Thameslink Programme. Trains will run via St Pancras
International, and then by a new link to the ECML.

Now, that is interesting. I wonder what the route will be.

The link is by tunnel immediately north of St Pancras low level station,
(the routes can be seen from the platform ends - the down side dives under
the running lines) to a flat junction with the ECML slows immediately north
of the Gasworks tunnels. The civil engineering was completed a few years
ago, the track is yet to be installed.
