Default HLOS - Thameslink rumours from Reuters

I've not heard any mention of ending the
Southern service to Watford although with these all being 4-car
diagrams releasing some of the sets with 375s (which have different
couplers) would enable a common 377 fleet to be available to
Southeastern/FCC. So it's quite a logical idea and one I'll ask about.


I rather hope that service doesn't get cut - the only thing that would
sensibly substitute for it would be platforms on the slows at
Willesden Jn and it being served by Silverlink County on a reasonable
frequency.

Journeys via London to Clapham can take a half hour or more extra.
