The Thameslink project now has all the legal powers to start
construction - it just needs someone to agree to pay for it! The
"Thameslink project" is the revised name Network Rail appear to use for
Thameslink 2000, though they've also used the term "Thameslink
Programme" in the past as well [1]. And the BBC uses the plain wrong
term of Thameslink 2012!

Thank goodness - a sensible decision at long last. Now they've just got
to smash open a few piggy banks.

Perhaps Douglas Alexander is actually trying to make things happen
rather than the "no absolutely nothing" approach of his predecessor?
