I don't suppose anybody could tell me of any industry specific TSI's or BSI's that apply to seating on passenger rolling stock.

Im getting a bit lost searching through them all!!

Any help is appreciated!!

As far as I know, only Railway Group Standard GM/RT2100 contains anything that can be related to seating and that is the requirement within section 10 Equipment Attached to Vehicle Bodies, which sets out requirements for attachments to vehicle bodies to remain in situ in the event of derailments, heavy shunts, or minor collisions.

Seating in itself is not classified as being safety critical, and provided that section 10 can be complied with a vehicle builder can space the seating in any way that the TOC wishes.
