This is kind of my point.  321s etc are bloody awful and for a long
time there wasn't much that was worse, till the Pendolinos came along
with even worse window views and no room to sit straight and fit even
fairly small shoulders in.

I share the disbelief that it could end up being nicer to sit in a 321
than anything (except maybe a 313).
