True never liked travelling that way when I had to and probably 50% of the middle seats were never occupied people would stand although always the risk on the three was someone would dump themselves in between you and then you'd be squashed especially on the window seat immobilised do do anything. Better to have 2+2 even if the pitch is tightened up.It's a waiting game to see if there will be space in between to put ones bag, if the pre 442 introduction timetable is the one being used
All this nonsense came when politicians decided people standing for too long was going to be a target so once you have a target you find a way round it by squashing in more seats. Thameslink took the right approach with 2+2 but without a centre armrest you get a similar problem with 2+3 as passengers on the aisle seat hang over into the aisle or the seat is left unoccupied.
