Valid cross London transfers

[shinkansen1966]

Advance purchase single from Sevenoaks (Kent) to York via London terminals. On the London to York leg of the trip, journey is by East Coast trains from London Kings Cross.

I understand this fare includes London Underground when crossing between London termini. But will this fare also allow for travel between London Bridge and London St Pancras International on the FCC Thameslink service ? This will be easier than taking the Northern Line between London Bridge and Kings Cross/St Pancras.

Thank you in advance for any advice.

Cross London transfer is valid on LUL, DLR or FCC's 'Thameslink' services by any reasonable route.

Yes it is valid but note that 90% plus of the time the Northern line will be the quickest route.

Bear in mind that Thameslink from London Bridge to St Pancras is only every 15 minutes, so you might get a bit of a wait.

And is usually delayed...

Thank you for advice. If anything, at least there are options.

What about the direct services from St Pancras International to Sevenoaks? These run every 30 minutes as part of the Thameslink service

(but are there faster alternatives?)

Usually quicker to take a fast train (ie one via Tonbridge) from Sevenoaks to London Bridge.
