The most significant parts of it don't happen until 2012-15
(rebuilding London Bridge and adding flyovers on its approaches,
wiring up the ECML connection, and replacing the whole fleet), so
you'd probably want to call it Thameslink 2015*.

(* unless you're in the camp who thinks the second phase won't happen,
which I've been pondering joining)

Thameslink 2015 it is, then I won't believe it's finished until I
can get a through train from Cambridge to Gatwick - one of the original
attractions of the scheme for me.
