Indeed what? Is knowing the precise junction layouts of the
various lines
a prerequsite of being able to discuss this?

No, but it would help you not look like a total prat.

When I start wearing an anorak and hanging around at the end of
platforms
carrying a thermos flask and notebook I might give a ****. Until
then...

....we will ignore everything you say, as you've now admitted it's
founded upon ignorance.

Feel free to point out where I said anything of the sort.

Your clearly admitted ignorance of the most basic details of the
Thameslink routes.

So not knowing about part of the new thameslink route means I don't
know
anything at all? Oh how handwaving convenient for your limp riposte.

You've also previously demonstrated a complete lack of knowledge about
the Thameslink route from Blackfriars to London Bridge in the thread
you started entitled 'Blackfriars - London Bridge:

"When was there last a service that went through both these stations?
I noticed theres a 3 track chord linking the line from blackfriars to
the charing X line but the tracks were rusty and there were some
road-rail maintenance machines sitting on it. Is it just for
occasional out of service stock movements now?"

What's wrong with lacking knowledge? You too don't know everything.

That's certainly true: there are many, many things I don't know. But I
don't go round pouring scorn on things I know little or nothing about, as
Spud/Boltar does.

but you do go around stating your personal opinions as fact and berate
anyone who tries to tell you you are mistaken

I assume you're referring to my expectations for the future? Obviously
no predictions are fact, but I don't make predictions that aren't well
researched and supported by evidence. And they're not necessarily my
opinions or what I would like to happen, just what majority opinion
thinks will happen. Of course they're not certain to happen, because
no predictions can be 100% accurate, but at least I research what I
state.
