Great that you never make mistakes. If people make mistakes, simply point them out and the discussion continues.
Which is what happened until you starting accusing nastiness.
So we have now established that all the windows on Electrostars are the same size except 2 at each cab end and one by a bog in one coach of a 4-car unit, I guess. I think my point still basically stands.
How can all windows be the same when your confirming they aren't? Your point was Electrostar windows are all the same. Prehaps a better way is to put it mostly the same size in older models?
Because it can't. It would be all very nice if they were going to give us 2.5m bay widths in Standard to align fully with those huge middle windows, but they won't. It would be completely uneconomic.
But you can if you choose. You can't complain at the seat layout on an just announced train for seats not matching up with the windows when it's confirmed that the seat location is chosen by the customer not the manufacturer. This is especially true when no internally info exists publicly yet.
Your basic point is what you believe to be the case, is yet unproven. And may never be.
Southern's older 2+2 seated Electrostars do. Have you travelled on one recently? The centre section set of 4 windows have one aligned bay each, while the end sections get either two rows of airlines or a bay to each window. I forget what's at the cab end, I half-remember it's an aligned bay and a side-facing seat.
On the older units is two seats together (the 377/2 certainly are) on the smaller window panel with a bay next to it.
The inwards facing seats I believe started with the 377/5s.
I haven't been on a older 377 in about a week seeing as my line is 95% Electrostar now when I travel.
See above. If the windows are not the width of a typical Standard bay, then the seats cannot be economically aligned to them. This is the case on the Class 380, and it appears that it is also the case on this unit. Typically Bombardier do not use such a large number of differently-sized windows as Siemens.
There a difference between the justification of lining up seats and the ability to do so. Im talking about the latter which is unaffected by the former.
However Bombardier's more recent products (387) make use of more than one window size and they have mismatched seating alignments in the between the doors due to customer requirements for more airline than bay seating. So Bombardier products have actually got worse in that respect. Which is where your comment
I wonder will Bombardier come up with a superior product in this regard?
Its actually wide of the mark as it seems no is your answer from its most recent product.
