Me and others in my family use this line everyday, without it our comutes will be so much longer, and the other lines will be unusable with so many people needing them.

These trains are always extremely busy, so clearly we’ll used and needed. Ceasing these services will make travel harder for many commuters, will increase numbers on already busy South Eastern Services, and reduce desirability and job prospects for south east London by reducing travel opportunities.

As a disabled person who uses this service regularly, i will be really angry if this service was reduced or even stopped. My life is a struggle at the best of times and this proposal will make my life even more of a struggle. The staff are wonderful at penge east.

To be cancelling a train service which is standing room only at all times beggars belief!!

This is a virtual service connect for SE London to Eurostar. It should not be sacrificed so that only SW London benefits

Commuting is already hell, it does not need to be made worse by people who don’t even use trains!

This will put massive pressure on other services/lines that are already overcrowded. Shows no understanding of city transport planning. Not to mention it removing a service which is relied upon by hundreds of thousands of people every year.

This is shocking. How can there be any justifiable reason to remove this extremely busy commuting route.

Please retain the Thameslink services from Beckenham Junstion. i will be starting a new job based in Kings Cross next week and I'm relying on this service for my daily commute. It would be a nightmare having to use congested tube stations at Victoria and very time consuming. This would have a major impact in my quality of life meaning that it would take a me a lot longer to commute, taking time away from being with my family after a long day at work. I hope this change is not going to happen as it seems totally unfair to disadvantage areas in South East London where our transport options are already limited compared to Wimbledon. Thank you

I've recently switched to this route as my previous journey via London Bridge to Charing Cross had become so unreliable despite the 'improvements' at London Bridge. This will have a huge impact on commuters in the area and just increase overcrowding on already busy routes.

This is an area of real growth and more and more central Londoners are commuting from here into central. These lines are essential!

This route is vital for my commute and also picking up my children from childcare. This would have a HUGELY negative effect on my life, surely this can be retained, Wimbledon is an incredibly well serviced area by comparison!!

These peak hour services are heavily used. Withdrawing them from our line will be hugely inconvenient for thousands of passengers.
