Trainline is owned by some venture capital firm or other - they have
absolutely no interest in spending money improving a product which has
the market by the balls, since they get little benefit out of
passenger satisfaction, while the TOCs get the bad publicity if
Trainline's crap web-app is unable to perform such basic tasks.


Virgin now have their own non-trainline booking system (though the
Virgin-branded trainline is still around). It has options for Quiet
Zone, Power Socket, Table Seat and Window or Aisle (but not Facing or
Backwards) for any train, including non-Virgin.
