Removing the 3rd seat from the 313s (making them 2+2 with a wide
aisle) has significantly improved the travelling experience, on the
couple of times I've used full NLL trains since they made the change.
I'm sure that longitudinal seating will be similarly helpful.


How do the number of (longitudinal) seats in a 4-car 378 compare with the
number of (transverse 2+2) seats in a 313 as currently used on LO?

Class 378s have about 30 seats less per car (DMSO are 36 in 378 to 66
in Class 313/1, centre cars are 40 (TSO) or 36 (MSO) in 378s compared
to 70 in the 313/1) so 90 less seats per unit of which 36 will be
regained when units are lengthened to 4 cars.
