Do they have any route knowledge to maintain? As far as I know FCC
have never actually operated into the present St P MML station.

During the blockade to create the station box for St Pancras Midland
City in 2004/2005, services from Bedford terminated at platforms at St
Pancras, not sure which platforms exactly, presumably the same as the
MML ones at the time (and which are to be re-used for CTRL-DS).

That's right, the eastern platforms. Since then the track leading to
them has been torn up and re-laid towards the western platforms.

So the route knowledge is destroyed.
