What will happen to SouthEastern train services into Blackfriars after
December 2008 - diverted to Victoria, cancelled, or will there be a
limited service continuing through to City Thameslink and terminating at
Smithfield sidings?


They will be running through to at least Kentish Town, possibly further,
although March 2009 is now believed to be the start date.

FCC drivers are currently training on dual voltage 377s, a number of which
will be transferred from Southern.


I wonder if theres an argument for extending the 3rd rail to kentish
town so dual voltage stock isn't required.
