Interior of a "Sièges Inclinables" (= Sleeperettes) car (B9½tu), diagrammed on Corail Lunéa 5595 "Vallée Blanche" (Paris Austerlitz-->St Gervais le Fayet, with through cars to Bourg-St Maurice). 
<br>
Ambience is very close to that of TGV Atlantique in 2nd-class.
<p>
This car is part of the very first batches of A10(r)tu cars which were rebuilt into Sleeperettes-cars (1989/1991), in that it features alternate rows, as on B10t USI cars. 
<br>
Conversely, the latest batches of B9½tu cars (1992/1993) have a more conventional layout, with 2 groups parrallel rows steered towards the middle of the car.
