Future developments

The Thameslink Programme (formerly Thameslink 2000) project proposes to turn some of the Southern services over to the expanded Thameslink network under First Capital Connect. This will see services that currently terminate at London Bridge continuing through Central London and north wards via the Midlands Main Line or East Coast Main Line to destinations such as Luton or Cambridge. The Thameslink Programme is centred around 12 car long trains, thus Horley station will have to have its platforms lengthened as they can only currently accommodates 8 car long trains.
