Will Thameslink route trains operate to Kings Lynn?
The design of the new Thameslink trains offered by both companies vying to build and maintain them currently precludes them serving stations from Cambridge to King’s Lynn. This is primarily because the power supply on the route to King’s Lynn is not capable of supporting the longer Thameslink trains, and many of the platforms on this route would be too short for the new Thameslink trains. However the number of direct through services between King’s Lynn and King’s Cross will be similar to that which passengers enjoy today.
