I understand that the dispute about Southern accepting FCC tickets
has been going on for quite a while.

I don't think there's any dispute. Which part of FCC ONLY do you fail to
understand?

Its about time both management teams got together to sort this out once
and for all.

This will happen some time after Hell Freezes Over, or possibly if the
Southern and Thameslink franchises are ever in the same hands again.

Not true, re the specific problem: a small amount of DfT head-knocking-
together could make franchiseesa bit better at disregarding operator-
specific restrictions in times of severe disruption.

Obviously on the wider not-problem-but-whole-bloody-point of competing
tickets, "hell freezes over" is the right timeframe.
