[QUOTE]Originally posted by George Harris: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [qb] While hardly an off the shelf copy, first for an 8' wide carboy and of course FRA crashworthiness, it looks like the designers started with proven European designs: [/qb][/QUOTE]Surely you jest: 8 feet wide car body? That is barely bus width. Think of what what you get with Greyhound or city bus 4 across seating and with an aisle barely up to normal airplane width. That is what is happening here. The normal standard American Railroad passenger car is 10 feet wide with 4 across seating, giving nicely wider seats and a wider aisle. The Japanese Shinkansen cars are 11'-1"wide with 3-2 seating. Even with that the seats are comfortable wide and the aisle width quite adequate. [/QB][/QUOTE]
