Will trains that originally terminated at Blackfriars now be stabled
and turned at the depot west of City Thameslink? I forget what it is
called.


A relatively small number of trains (only about 5 or 6 per day) will
terminate at City T/L and/or run into 'Smithfield Sidings', and half of
those are temporary because of the initial shortage of dual voltage stock,
originally the only 3 planned were very early am peak services, as listed

In general however, trains that would have terminated at Blackfriars will
run through to at least Kentish Town, with some peak services going as far
as St Albans or Bedford.

I suspect there might be a good proportion of Southeastern's current
Blackfriars pax carrying on to at least City T/L.
