FGW First Class seating arrangements

[bb21]

Anyone good with seat numbers in FGW refurbished First Class carriages (HSTs)? I am struggling to find any seating plan online as the only ones they have are either the old ones with 2.5 First Class carriages, or the refreshed ones still with B and F designations.

I have a batch of reservations for Coach L, Seats 1-10. Anyone know which ones are around tables and which are individual ones? Ta.

I can confirm that seats 11b/f & 12b/f are table seats in coach L if that's of use, no info on any others, sorry.

B and F? The ones I got no longer have B/F designation.

These were booked with FGW back in July for travel on 25/9/15, is yours a very recent booking?

Yeah mine was booked today.

L1 is the disabled & companion space
L4, 7, 10 are individual
L2/3 B&F, 5/6 B&F, 8/9 B&F are tables.

First class has a different numbering system to standard, where by table seats are n1B n2B n1F n2F around a table, where as standard the seats are individually numbered.

I don't know if these seat numbers have been set up correctly for this service as what plymothian says sounds consistent with the seat map, but there was definitely no F or B in any standard or first seats on this service. Are GWR changing the seat numbers maybe or...?

An example from online:

GWR have just changed to individual seat numbering in First Class, within the last couple of weeks. I doubt the new seat numbering has 'gone live' yet. I can't remember the date for the change, may well be the December timetable change. I don't think new seating plans have been issued yet. The instruction to staff was basically to trust the system to match any preferences inputted.
