Default "Queen to open St Pancras station" today

There was something you missed. I passed through Luton this morning and
read a FCC poster that explicitly stated that during the closures you
mentioned a limited FCC service would operate to/from platforms 1-4 at
St Pancras - i.e. the Midland Main Line high-level platforms. The only
exception is the weekend before the New Year when Carlton Road Junction
will be renewed (about bloody time too!) - FCC trains will proceed no
further south than West Hampstead Thameslink.
