"New" MARC Cars
Each morning I ride the MARC train into DC. MARC added a third type of car sometime during the last year or so, and I'm enjoying these. Here's a picture:

What you're seeing is the upper storey of these cars. The lower level has more conventional seating, with bench seats accomodating two persons on each side of the car, half facing each way. But the upper level is the surprise, with single-wide seats facing front or rear, and a row of drop-down seats (as in a theatre) facing toward the center. These are particularly convenient for laptop use, since there's room to prop your feet up, and room to have your laptop screen open to the proper angle.
Here's a photo Vicki shot last week as the MARC train was coming into Jessup.
