Have you actually ever been on a 378? Its transverse seating the whole way

It sounds like *you've* never been on a 378: they only have longitudinal
seats. There are no transverse seats.

Typo, meant longitudinal. Point still stands. As for having never been on
one, I spent 6 months commuting on the things. I doubt you've even spent
6 seconds on one.


At least I know very well what kind of seats they have (and that they're
rock hard). So, given that you don't even know what kind of seats they
have, I really doubt you've ever set foot in one.


Is this your weekly trolling day?


As opposed to your daily trolling?

I'm also intrigued by your definition of 'typo'. Presumably every error you
make can be lightly dismissed as a typo?


Believe it or not, some of us work for a living so occasionally when typing
out something quickly in order to get on with some work I make a mistake.


Is 'occasionally' a typo for 'invariably'?
