Comfort for Passengers
Comfort for Passengers.
Special attention has been paid to the
comfort of passengers, with particular reference to the seating, lighting, and heating of the coaches. The seats are of the “throw-over” type (so that passengers can face the direction of travel), and are comfortably upholstered in modern colourings. The fittings for lighting are of the concealed pattern, providing a diffused light of high candle-power throughout the vehicles. Electric heating, thermostatically controlled, ensures even temperature during the cold winter months.
