The number of seats in buses has been declining more or less steadily since around 1980.It's been longer than that. The first NYCTA buses that drastically reduced seating were purchased around 1958. These were GMC's old looks that replaced the 2000 series that was purchased around 1948. These buses were the first to use passenger operated rear doors and had plastic seats. The rear used galley seating which reduced seats in favor of standees. |
