Posted by Fytton on Tue Nov 2 04:50:12 2004, in response to Re: London's five-year plan, posted by David Fairthorne on Mon Nov 1 18:24:56 2004. Of course, passengers from Brighton, Preston Park, Hassocks, Burgess Hill and Wivelsfield can reach any of Victoria, London Bridge, Thameslink stations or Kensington Olympia/Watford by changing at either Haywards Heath or East Croydon.The Thameslink service to London Bridge doesn't only help the people on the southern end of Thameslink, though, it helps those on the northern side too. It provides a two-seat ride, avoiding humping one's luggage down on the tube and up again, from Bedford, Luton & St Albans to everywhere in south and southeast London and Kent that has trains from London Bridge. As a Bedford resident I find that useful. I agree, though, that sending the 2 tph fast Brighton Thameslinks via London Bridge and the other 2 tph slow Brighton Thameslinks via Tulse Hill to Blackfriars would be a reasonable compromise to minimise the conflicts at Borough Market and Metropolitan Junctions until Thameslink 2000 gets built. |
