Good point Colin - if this really does date from that service
change, I wonder if this 'special case' will also come to an end
following the short (3 year IIRC) transition period when pax on the
Thameslink branch to Moorgate will be able to carry on using NR
tickets, after closure in December 2008. It would seem unfair to
them (Thameslink) otherwise...


Has that limitation been announced as part of the Thameslink programme?
Things already appear to be somewhat different on BedPan from the GN.


Yes it's at para 37 of the SofS's 'closure decision letter' - the transition
period is only 2 years though.
