I think the E200s aren't really suitable tor the Belmont 64 because, by their very nature, they fill up at one end with lots of people with several full bags and there's nowhere to put them other than on the seat, on the floor between your feet, or, as it ends up by the time it's filled up completely at Framwellgate Moor, precariously stacked all the way up to your chin, being clung onto so it doesn't end up landing on the ehad of the person in front.
I think it goes back to the storage vs seats vs accessibility conversation on another part of the forum a few weeks back.
Squeezing seats in to small, midi-buses that are used by a variety of the population, will inevitably lead to the situation you describe.
It is obviously repeated on other routes and vehicle types too.
I can't think of a modern vehicle, that has a decent amount of storage.
