And what happens to them after the end of NXEA'a franchise? ISTR it
was only for 9 years, giving us enough grief planning the future of
Cambridge station.

Is it not the case that franchises such as FCC to Cambridge will
run until taken over by an integrated "Thameslink 2013" franchise,
by which time all the infrastructure improvements will be complete.

Bzzt! Cambridge station comes under the East Anglia franchise!

So it's being extended independently of the Thameslink 2013 project?

In any event, the NXEA franchise is extendable until March 2014.

Now we are on the subject, have they done the small increases in length
of platform 1 & 4 (to 12 cars) yet?
