Default 2009 stock **** poor interior design

having the seats flush against a thin wall allowing a nice wide isle with
maximum space it actually looks like theres a bit less space in the seating

Can LU and its train builders ever get anything right?

I didn't think anything on LU could be worse than the Jubilee stock,
but maybe they've managed it.


Jubilee stock sounds nice Not convinced about the interior colour scheme
though.

I've mentioned in the past how the walls are getting thicker and
thicker, with chunky obstructions where people need to lean, and
wondered if the trains will eventually be solid with just enough space
inside to put the electric wires through.


It does begger belief really. They advertise the new trains as having more
space then wheel out a train that has the same or less than the ones its
replacing. What a complete waste of money. I wonder how much of the recent
fare increase was to pay for these pointless new trains.
