I've been at London Bridge so many times with the Thameslink trains
already expected fifteen minutes late. Being at London Bridge for the
0909 and finding it delayed doesn't leave much flexibility.


In the event, it was 6 minutes late at London bridge and 2 minutes late
at St Pancras.


Padding ...

I left it fairly late and got the 0836 from Peckham Rye, in which I
even got a seat.

I was wondering if D7666 might have something to say about the number
of short-formed trains on Thameslink this evening rush hour, just when
they are most likely to be in demand, but maybe it's normal.
