  which explains why most people don't wish to take the window seat unless they are travelling from start to the terminating stop..

  For your information, DM3500 and Striders are not so old, in fact, Mk 4 DM3500 is commisioned just before the Tridents.....

   

  Just dun think a bus is not B9, KUB, Man, B7RLE it is old......

  I agree. The two PIW slots are unnecessary. I think one would suffice. After all the B9s only have one slot. I think SBST wanted a large standing area. And since the area is so large, then might as well put 2 slots for wheelchair.

  0405 cramped? Then you obviously have not sat on a MKIII before. The only berable seats on the MKIII are the side facing one, and the one immediately after the side facing one on the right, the first forward facing seat on the left side, assuming there is no one seating on the seat opposite, and the exit row on the right. Nothing else.

  PM Peak until 2030(in time slots) sill cramp on 293.

  Most of the time when I ride a Scania N113CRB, the bench seat for 4 in front can only fit 3 and the seat for 3 behind usually seats only two...

  You could do with reading up more books (wikipedia not included) on buses both local and overseas, to realise that there is absolutely nothing wrong in the choice of word.
