I second that for the Piccadilly line. The only vaguely usable ones
are the car-end ones, but they're still not particularly comfortable.
Standing is far more comfortable than "perching".



Only for people who have two good legs and/or are not pregnant etc.


Fair enough.

Of course, for those people, an actual seat is probably far superior, be
it tip-up or not.
