What sort of seats will these trains have? Presumably the stock
will all be the exact same, differing only in seating.

Seating will be the same on three versions. There will be a lot
less seats than now because LU insists on having 1000mm between
seats for wheelchairs to pass between them. So, you will have to
stand every day because someone might want to have a wheelchair
on the train once in the next 35 years!

With that kind of thinking, one might as well transfer ownership of the
fast lines from Harrow North to Moor Park, and hence to Amersham, to
Network Rail! Bucks commuters won't stand for nasty transverse seating
that crams them together like C-stock cattle; they complained when the
T stock went away and they'll complain even louder when the A stock
goes away. Not that Chiltern would mind, of course...

Have LU lots their minds? Or is it just the useless nanny-state H&S
folks pushing this rubbish?
