With this being one of the commuter routes which has been plunged into chaos since the new timetable change from Thameslink / Great Northern I thought I'd go and check out what all the fuss was about. Using the new tunnel in London, trains now run between Peterborough and Cambridge not only into King's Cross but through St Pancras and south of the Thames to Gatwick Airport and beyond. However the introduction of this new timetable has caused endless trains to be cancelled and journeys to be disrupted because of lack of trains and lack of staff to operate the amount of trains that have been introduced. In this video you can see plenty of 12-car peak services coming and going from London, some were only delayed slightly but you don't see in this video is the services that were cancelled altogether. Many services south of the Thames had been cancelled or at least partially cancelled for part of the journey which is very frustrating. Luckily I was travelling on Virgin East Coast, which has just lost its franchise. But luckily still manages to run its trains.
INCLUDES: Great Northern 387's, 365's, 313's & Thameslink 700's, Virgin HST'S & 225's and Grand Central 180.
As it stands there is currently an emergency timetable in operation to try and limit the number of services being cancelled. However hundreds of trains a day are still facing major disruption on the the Thameslink network. So we'll wait for some improvement.
Thanks for watching
