A mass transit passenger vehicle comprising a support (114, figure 4a) extending into interior passenger space from the vehicle sidewall; a seat sub-assembly mounted for rotation about a first vertical axis (D) relative to the support between a first and a second seating configuration in which the seat is supported exclusively by the support and faces in a first and a second direction respectively; the seat is mounted to the support such that the vertical axis (D) is moveable in at least one direction perpendicular thereto to facilitate free rotation of the seat. Preferably the first vertical axis moves along a curved, arcuate path and away from a vehicle sidewall to provide clearance for rotation; the seat is mounted on a pivot member (122) for rotation about said first vertical axis, and the pivot member is mounted to the support for rotation about a second vertical axis (C); the seating configuration could be changed from facing along the direction of travel to facing inwardly (for maximum standing space). The vehicle may be a train, metro, underground, tram, bus, watercraft or aircraft.
