Faringdon is a far better interchange with LU. The odds are that you

Not from where I sit. Links from Thameslink to WAGN will not be easier as
far as I can see. However, unless they improve Thameslink cross-London
transit times it will still be quicker to go to Victoria and take the
Victoria Line to the Cross. Rather undermines the point of Thameslink.
Well, coming from the south, get off at Faringdon, over the bridge, next LU
train to KX, nip up the stairs and you are in the concourse. Coming from the
north, cross to the opposite face of the platform and do the same. Compared
with a long trek and awkward road crossings it wins for me. If you have
luggage, even more so.
