Default More Overground trains

I was aware of the change to layout - it's the absolute numbers given, of
500 and 667 'per carriage' that I'm totally bemused by. The latter being
133% of the former - this _ratio_ seems reasonable enough to account for the
changed design.

However a current 313 carriage has about 70-80 seats - can they really take
another 420-430 standees?


Sounds like a challenge for Indian Railways! :-)
