Having just slogged through all the planning documentation for the new KX
ticket hall, its all been designed for 12 tph suburban and 7 tph long
distance. I can't believe they are designing KX on the basis that these

12
services will disappear as soon as Thameslink is completed, so are these
suburban services going to be additional, if all current services are due

to
go down the Thameslink route when its finished?

In the morning peak hour, FCC run 15 tph from the Midland line, and around
12 tph from the GN line into Kings Cross. The Thameslink project will allow
24 tph to run through Central london, so if existing frequencies are only
maintained, not enhanced, some trains will still need to terminate at Kings
Cross.
