It may be that only the semi fast run on Thames link with the fasts and

Cambs using TL but *no mention of Norfolk, so Kings Lynn may no be included.
There was also talk of using IEP stock to Cambridge, so there should be
spare 317s to redeploy yet again


If they put IEP onto the Cambridge fast services, but don't send them
through to Kings Lynn, maybe the timetable will have to use the
semi-fasts for that - but they are the ones suggested above for
Thameslink (less the Norfolk attribution). Surely they wouldn't condemn
Ely and Kings Lynn to an extension of the stoppers?

And the minister just said they don't like making people change trains.

What sort of junction is there going to be, to the north of St Pancras
Low Level? *Is it flat, or non-conflicting?


It's a dive-under I think.

North of Ely you've got largely single track, four-car platforms, and
not enough power. It's unlikely to be IEP to Kings Lynn.
