But there may be 40 seats on a train that are not reserved. But none of them
may be together. Under the coach way of seat allocations, a group of 2, 3,
4, etc. would be able to be accommodated. With the railways, they *may* not.
If they insisted on being together, they would be turned away. Is this good
business sense?
