Default Whither Thameslink to Cambridge?

I was under the impression that both the up and down goods were being
upgraded, these being on the "outside" of the existing lines...? (all
still happily in the right places for conflict-free operation between
the flyover at Ally Pally and the pair of diveunders at Finsbury Park,
I might add).


That's correct, however they are treated as two separate (but related)
projects by NR, and each direction can stand alone - and I think one
direction may have had a higher priority initially.

However according to the most up to date enhancements plan they both now
have the same start and *completion dates, ie Jan 2012 - Dec 2013...

Will this allow the Moorgate to Hertford North service to operate
completely
independently from the WGC to KX/Thameslink trains. That is to say no
shared
track? If so, it would eliminate service polution issues.
