The tight seating was not the result of a Japanese design, which seems to be the popular myth. The fact was that the MTA wanted to have bucket style seating like the R-44s and 46s but also wanted to make sure that the cars seated a certain number of passengers. The buckets were designed small at the request of the MTA, not to fit Japanese butts. |
