One small question - is it still the case that there will be a flat
junction south of Blackfriars where the LOB and E&C routes diverge?

I can't imagine anything fancy like flyunders can be put in place
given the CX line alignment. Nonetheless that is going to some
challenge to get 18 tph in both directions across a flat junction
without too many conflicts given the pretty long distance nature of
many of the services and risks of late running.

The 24 trains will be all the traffic there that might conflict? There will
still be Blackfriars terminators there but they won't conflict with the
Thameslink trains under the new layout AIUI.
