I think a plausible scenario is:
- Cambridge/King's Lynn/Peterborough fasts: 5+5 car IEP to King's
Cross
- Cambridge semi-fast/Welwyn stopping services: 12-car Thameslink
- Hertford Loop: High-frequency semi-segregated service to Moorgate

So no useful Cambridge-Gatwick services after all. :-(

What's wrong with the semi-fasts? The Gatwick services are going
to be pretty slow from SPILL to Gatwick, so adding a few minutes
north of SPILL isn't the end of the world.

It's about 15 minutes so we will get to Gatwick considerably quicker via
Victoria, by the look of it.
