I am now of the opinion you won't.

Even though they completed the tunnelling into SPILL I have alwys been
sceptical about connecting up GN to it.

They are going to all this trouble of re-arranging appoaches to
Blackfriars and south/east thereof to avoid as far as possible
conflicting moves to make 24 TPH in the core work, and then build a
new junction across which every move will conflict right *in* the
core ?!?!?!?

Is it a flat junction? I thought the northbound line tunnelled under.

It does dive under - and it is already built, (though track yet to be laid),
you can
see it dropping down as you leave the northbound StP platform.

It ought to be less of an issue in terms of running 24 tph than the flat
junction at Blackfriars
