Wasn't this at one point to be named, St Pancras Midland Road (or close to)? Simply south 14:25, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, the station was originally referred to as St Pancras Midland Road, although now the two names are seemingly interchangable. By the time the station opens, we should know which name will be chosen. Edvid 04:11, 31st October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] St Pancras International

The new FCC/Thameslink map calls the station St Pancras International. Since it's directly underneath there, not giving it a separate name seems logical. Not sure what to do about this article. --82.45.163.4 22:14, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Probably either leave it or suggest merge with St Pancras International railway station. Simply south 23:43, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

The link to the map doesn't work, but this one should. D-Notice 16:49, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

The station is to be named St Pancras International, as confirmed by the DfT in April 2007. This is in keeping with the international/domestic terminal directly upstairs from the FCC station downstairs. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Matthewriley (talk) 09:11, 24 April 2007 (UTC).

How do you know this? Is there a link? Edvid 10:19, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

This is a link to the FCC website stating that the station will be known as St Pancras International. Hammersfan 02/05/07, 17.31 BST

Sorry, I should have phrased the question like this - how does Matthewriley know that the name of the new station was confirmed by the DfT? On another note, to whom do we refer as far as the convention for naming UK railway stations (especially major London termini) is concerned? I should also add that regardless of whether St Pancras Thameslink railway station is merged with St Pancras railway station or not, the latter article should keep its name until 14 November, and even then need not change unless St Pancras International, which is currently just an LCR brand, becomes the official name.

I work in the industry and was privy to the naming information Matthewriley 20:11, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] history

This is not a separate station but part of SPI. The entry on SPI needs to say that it includes platforms for trains between Bedford and Brighton. The entry about KXTL needs to be changed (a) to anticipate its closure, (b) to say that trains will start to call at SPI instead, (c) and to reflect the closure after it has happened by describing KXTL as a closed station.
