Aye the timetable was stupid then though mind.

Aye give you that the mercs are bad mind, especially the ones with the two seats at different heights.
I totally forgot about the disabled bay being being the front row of seats aswell on the Hybrids. The whole layout is illogical, I feel sorry for pensioners who struggle to walk who use them as there's only 6 seats on the low floor section from what I can remember, the rest being up steps. The 4 bay on the right at the back is particularly hairy going around bends as it's hard to balance and there's no grab rail / seat to hold onto. Hated them personally and were glad they went from up here.
