This afternoon I took a Thameslink train to Sutton which

This was clearly intentional as the train announcer warned
that the doors would open on the right-hand side. (There
was a train waiting at the other platform which seemed to be
heading for Bedford.) On our platform none of the destination
indicators listed our train or Sutton.

Is two-way running common at St. Pancras International? If it is,
why do the destination indicators not display South London
destinations?


"Wrong Line" running or reversal at SPILL is very rare and I am not
surprised that the PIS does not support it. I would guess that the
"Stand Back - Not For Public Use" appeared on the indicators - it
happens occasionally, even for right direction service trains! Reversal
of trains from the north is usually done at an EMT platform or at
Kentish Town.
