No, the trains run slower There speaks a man who doesn't use Thameslink very much  and stop much more often. The stations are on average closer, but the trains rarely stop between stations. -- Roland Perry |

Away from there, it has 100mph trains, unlike the Tube, which usually runs at below about 45mph. |

Although Luton to St Pancras on a stopper is 45 minutes, for about 33 miles; which is pretty tedious. -- Roland Perry |

Ah well, you have the choice of fast trains or stoppers, unlike on almost all LU routes (and even on the 'fast' Picc and Met sections, the trains rarely exceed 45mph). |
