And their website still doesn't give you the option to change your seat even if there are other seats free, yet third party websites do.
Using F and U made a lot of sense, because U only features on 11-car sets and F has a different layout between 9s and 11s, thus meaning only one layout needed entering on the seat selector (remember that?) and you could swap 9s for 11s and vice versa without knackering the reservations.
C is what it traditionally was on BR but makes less sense to me.
Almost. In first class at least. The rear coach (K?) was unreserved - and full. I was on the brink of using the tip up seats, but found some that were only reserved from Warrington and empty. Then jumped into some seats that were reserved Euston - Warrington.
I think they should've kept Coach F unreserved. Coach C tends to fill quite quickly on the 9 car sets. Then again everywhere fills quickly on the 9 car sets.
Ive noticed it fills up by carriage.
normally it starts with Coach A/E, then Coach B, Coach D and Coach F. Coach’s D and F I’ve noticed are the least reserved
