Turkish
train cars in which passengers
sit are of two types.
European-style
compartments for up to six
persons. Passengers sit on two
bench seats facing one another,
three seats on each side. One side
faces toward the front of the train,
the other toward the rear. A dozen
compartments line one side of the
train car, each compartment with
a window to the outside and a door
to the access corridor on the other
side.
American-style
Pullman seats are individual
reclining seats, two or three on
each side of a central aisle, all
facing in the same direction toward
the front of the train, with common
windows on both sides of the car.
Turkish
trains use both types, although
the newer, better trains use the Pullman-style
cars.
