"There is good news for commuters travelling out of Brighton station as
the
first Class 700 Thameslink service makes its maiden journey.
The 10:02am departure from the city to London Bridge on Monday (June 20th)
will allow passengers to get a first glimpse of the future of train travel
between Brighton and Bedford."


Assuming the train crew turn up, from what I read.


The service is running - currently 4 minutes late. Don't know if the class
700 rolling stock turned up.

Thameslink services (which are all DOO) seem to be more reliable than
Southern, and should not be affected by the conductor's strike tomorrow.
