Amfleet cars are 10' 6" wide, outside to outside, at the widest point of the tubular shape (just below the window line).I have read that the width of Amtrak's Amfleet coaches are 10 and a half feet wide.
Does this refer to the vertical width of the coaches or the diagonal width?
Verticle width is height. What would diagonal width even mean? The cars are round.I have read that the width of Amtrak's Amfleet coaches are 10 and a half feet wide.

Yeah, for basically all screens, the standard (including for phones and computers) measurement is on diagonal. And I suppose someone could theoretically measure the 'diagonal width' of a Horizon or Superliner...but an Amfleet?it is not as hard to misinterpret as one might imagine, one of the most common things we deal with, television sets, actually state screen width as a diagonal. That is obviously (to us) not the case here, but I can see the notion....
No we don't, we refer to screen size. I've never heard screen size referred to as "width", precisely because it isn't width.Yeah, for basically all screens, the standard (including for phones and computers) measurement is on diagonal.it is not as hard to misinterpret as one might imagine, one of the most common things we deal with, television sets, actually state screen width as a diagonal.

DiagonallyHow many 70" class vertical width soundbars can I fit within the Amfleet loading gauge?
27. Because motorcycles don't have doors.How many 70" class vertical width soundbars can I fit within the Amfleet loading gauge?
That would work. It's a pain in the neck but it works. So I guess (just for the display dimensions) a 50" screen is about 43.6" x 24.5".Believe all HDTV screens are now a 16:9 ratio. so a little math will get the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the screen. Then add the borders in ( my sides and top are just over 1" ) bottom ~ 3 ". Will that math help ?
Exactly the V-1 and V-2 designs increase the inside volume somewhat. More importantly passengers who are walking thru the cars will not perceive the closing in feeling of the circular shell near their eyes.. My point is that Amfleets have a pretty weird, outdated design that really doesnt make sense anymore, which definitely can cause a fair bit of confusion when talking about the cars space and dimensions.
