Are we sure it's 87 seats? Or is it 87 capacity (x seats and y standing)?
As Garius points out, it's 87 *capacity* which explains a lot - the
actual seating is less than the original Routemaster let alone a modern
double decker or even a bendy, which has twice as many seats downstairs.
In point of fact it's got fewer seats downstairs than a modern midi-bus,
the local ones of which tend to have about 25.
