Details
The Thameslink programme is a key element of the department’s strategy for rail and is a major initiative to provide additional capacity and remove passenger bottlenecks on the London commuter network. The programme will allow the operation of longer trains (up to 243 metres) on the Thameslink network at higher frequencies (up to 24 trains per hour) through the central London’s ‘core’ section.
