Which should finish in 2018. Would we expect service patterns to change
immediately?


The most up to date info is in the draft London and South East RUS - which
amongst other info about the ECML and Kings Cross services gives the
Thameslink GN side as 8 tph, of which:


2 tph 12 car Peterborough
2 tph 12 car Cambridge
4 tph 8 car Welwyn GC


all from 2018


To where will the Northern City trains run, post Thameslink.- Hide quoted text -

If it the case that all (or most) Moorgate trains will be Hertford
Loop ones, (with WGC services going to Thameslink), I guess it could
be because they would conveniently use the up 'goods' line from
Alexandra P to F Pk which is planned to be converted for passenger
trains use to provide extra capacity. With the upgraded track being
on W side of current USL, presumably Hertford Loop trains would be
able run from Alexandra P to N City branch without any conflict with
ECML/WGC trains.
