All this and nobody brings up the benefits of longitudinal seating? I'm only 6' tall and my knees feel like the caps have been scraped off by my metro rides. Longitudinal seating would let everybody sit comfortably but not 'hog' adjacent seats, leave more space in the aisles for people to occupy and still have room to walk around when the exit approaches. Combined with 4-door cars and it's a big gain for small money when refurbing cars or buying new ones.

I think Matt Johnson told us that 3-door 7000 series cars with longitudinal seats would have us lose less than 10% of current seat counts.

Longitudinal seating FTW as far as I'm concerned.
