Basically, is St Pancras-London Bridge open to passenger trains on Saturday 25/02, and are Brighton services running as per usual?

Cheers

Further, is a London Terminals-Brighton FCC only SDR valid through the Core?

To answer your first question: no, I don't think so, from looking at NRE and from local knowledge. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong!

Ah thanks, can't access that very well off my BB. I take it Brighton services are running ex-LBG then?

Saturday 25 February 2012: No trains through central London with an alteration on the Brighton route

All day, no trains will operate across central London. Trains will still run to/from London Bridge (from the south) and St Pancras International (from the north) as follows:

Brighton route: Trains will operate between London Bridge and Brighton.

Excellent, thanks; shame about STP southwards being shut, but LBG is no issue to get to :)

London Terminals tickets are not valid at or through Farringdon, so towards Brighton the furthest north station you could start from would be City TL, towards the north it'd be St Pancras.

However a ticket specifically from London St Pancras (or Farringdon) to Brighton is showing on NRE at the same price as from London Terminals. This would be valid through the core if it were running and would presumably cover you for the tube from St Pancras to London Bridge when the core is closed.
