If I'm readign that right, there will never be interchange between St
Pancras Thameslink and the Underground. Surely some mistake?


No mistake - *all* Thameslink passengers who get on/off at StP must go
through the gateline. In particular Victoria line passengers will be in
for a shock, although the Northern Ticket Hall (to open in 2010) will
shorten the walking distance between the deep-level lines and StP (TL)
slightly (particularly the Northern line). In any case the walking
distance for Met/Circle/H&C line passengers will not change tomorrow.


So what will be the best route for a passenger from, say, Luton who
wants to get to, say, Paddington? Will it still be easier overall to
remain on the train at KXSP and change at Farringdon?
