I understand the reason why Southern want to cut peak services into London Bridge is that the signalling is at full capacity already at that time, so the only way to get those two extra Overground trains on our line is to cut 2 trains per hour during the morning peak on Southern.

Realistically, I can't see those Overground trains not being introduced onto what is an already busy line on a normal day.

The best but not ideal solution is to ensure Southern add 10 carriages to all of the remaining peak services into London Bridge to ensure the current capacity is maintained as they do in the evenings.
