This document describes our Penalty Fares Scheme for the purposes of rule 3.2 b. 1.2 We have decided to introduce a Penalty Fares Scheme because the previous operator of the railway passenger services comprised of the Thameslink Great Northern franchise, First Capital Connect and Southern Railways, operated a Penalty Fares Scheme in such franchise area and the experience has proved that it is an efficient means to deter ticketless travel. In addition, once some Southeastern routes and stations are integrated into the TSGN franchise from 14 December 2014 and once the entire current Southern franchise is integrated into the TSGN franchise on 26th July 2015, it is important that there is consistency across all franchise areas (as Southeastern and Southern both also operate a Penalty Fares Scheme); so as to avoid causing confusion for our passengers. This scheme will now include all stations under schemes previously operated by Govia Thameslink Railway Limited and Southern Railway Limited.

  • The Gibb Report – an Assessment
    UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM PRESTIGE LECTURE 3rd October 2017 The Gibb Report – An Assessment by Piers Connor1 Background to the Gibb Report In September 2014, a new company, Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR), was given the contract to run train services operated over the Thameslink, Great Northern, Gatwick Express and Southern Railway. In the year leading up to the summer of 2016, the performance of the Southern Railway, the part of the Govia Thameslink Railway covering the suburban and south coast services between London and a large section of the southern coast of England, deteriorated to a level where passenger dissatisfaction was leading to public demonstrations and persistent media criticism. Eventually, the government was forced to act and they decided to commission a review of Southern and its service performance. The result was the Gibb Report2. to the West Midlands, North West and Scotland to Bedford Milton Keynes Central Bletchley Leighton Buzzard Tring SERVICES AND FACILITIES Berkhamsted London Cannon Street Hemel Hempstead This is a general guide to the basic daily services.

We are completely independent of all political parties, trades unions and commercial interests, funded entirely from our membership. We campaign for improved rail services for passengers and freight. Whilst pro-rail, we are not anti car or aviation. We welcome the opportunity to take part in this review and would be keen to engage further as necessary. This response was gathered from affected branches and coordinated by Keith Dyall in his role as Railfuture TOC Liaison for the GTR Franchise (email [email protected], 26 Millway, Mill Hill, London, NW7 3RB). December 2015 - Thameslink Bedford to Gatwick Airport and Brighton Q1 What do you think about these proposals noting that it is not possible to serve both London Bridge and London Blackfriars stations from Preston Park, Hassocks and Wivelsfield until 2018 when the Thameslink works are completed? A This specific change may be undesirable but appears inevitable. See also our response to Q11. Q2 Do you support the new journey opportunities between Brighton, Gatwick Airport, Central London, Stevenage, Letchworth and Cambridge? A Yes. A major improvement in connectivity by bringing the Brighton and Great Northern routes together in the expanded Thameslink network. Q3 Do you support faster journey times for passengers for overnight journeys travelling from stations between Bedford, Luton and London A Yes, but it seems that improvements are to be made for outer passengers at the expense of shorter distance travel, and Luton now appears to do better than Gatwick for passengers and staff.

  • New Smartphone Train Tickets Help Thameslink and Great Northern Passengers Socially Distance
    Smartphone e-tickets speed passengers on their way and help everyone to socially-distance Dec 15, 2020 13:56 GMT New smartphone train tickets help Thameslink and Great Northern passengers socially distance High-resolution pictures are available to download at the bottom of this press release 15 December 2020: Passengers can now travel using Thameslink and Great Northern smartphone e-tickets at eight stations in Herts, Cambs and Beds, helping people socially distance, preventing the spread of Covid-19. Barcode readers have just been installed on ticket gates at: • Hitchin • Huntingdon • St Neots • Sandy • Royston • Letchworth • Leagrave • Flitwick The technology is already available at eight other major stations in the region (see editor’s notes). They allow passengers to scan e-tickets bought via the Great Northern OnTrack app, Thameslink OnTrack app or online at greatnorthernrail.com and thameslinkrailway.com and displayed on their smartphones or printed out at home. Barcode e-ticket sales have increased in the UK from 25% of UK rail ticket revenues pre-Covid to 33% as people realise the benefits of non-contact travel. E-tickets can help passengers travel with confidence and are ideal for advanced singles, peak and off-peak singles, and peak and off-peak day return tickets. Another 10 stations will follow over the coming months, in addition to the 46 stations already fitted with the technology across the Govia Thameslink Railway network of Southern, Thameslink and Great Northern. Season tickets go smart Season ticket holders looking for similar Covid-safe benefits are urged to use the free Key smartcard which is also now available over all ticket office counters across the Govia Thameslink Railway network and not just by ordering it online, a process that would otherwise take up to five days.
