Note, incidentally, that if you're commuting from Cambridge to the
City of London (and don't fancy the Liverpool Street line) then you
can use a Cambridge - London Terminals ticket on the underground
between King's Cross and Moorgate.

Not according to the current Fares Manual (Section A Page A4), there is
an
exclusion for journey's beyond St Pancras from the north (or City
Thameslink
from the south). In other words Moorgate is only a London Terminal via
Finsbury Park.

You are mistaken, mainly because Cambridge is on the GN route (out of
KX), not the TL route (out of St Pancras). The PP is correct (see page
L5).

How do you get from Kings Cross to Moorgate by train then?

I see - (should have checked L5 first!) - it's weird isn't it - I assume
this has something to do with the history of Moorgate as a former
underground station (GN&C), and/or the fact that the 'replacement' main line
trains don't run late evening and weekends, so the underground is ok in
lieu?

I first heard about this in the leaflet that WAGN gave me when I first
bought a season ticket a few years ago, and subsequently confirmed it
in the National Fares Manual.

I, too, think it's something to do with Finsbury Park - Moorgate not
operating late evenings and at weekends.
