Street - Blackfriars area. AFIAA, only 33s and 73s are allowed
through the Thameslink tunnels and beyond as far as Kentish Town.


Whats the reason for the restriction , is it loading gauge or
gradiants or something else entirely?


Height of the tunnels?


ISTR it's carriage length, because of the sharp curve around St Pancras.
