First Capital Connect have a new website all about the Thameslink

Anyone know anything about the suggestion that the new trains will be in
fixed 8 or 12 car formations so precluding through trains to King's Lynn

They seem to have been talking to TfL and thinking of the cost of cabs in
the middle of trains.

Mind you, the web site doesn't mention the GN connection at all.
