Special mobile information centres giving local details of Railtrack's £580 million Thameslink 2000 project have taken to the road this week.

The information centres will ensure that local residents have an opportunity to comment on the development of this project which will significantly increase train capacity on the curent Thameslink route and make it easier to travel to places north and south of London.

The centres will be at 20 locations at or close to key railway stations along the route over the next two months. They will be manned from 1200 to 2000 during the week and from 1000 to 1700 at weekends.

Advance notice of these dates will be advertised in the local newspapers and at the stations. A list of these dates is attached .

An information hotline has been set up for those who cannot make the exhibition centres. The phone number is 0845 000 2000.
