I seem to remember cramming 2 decks into one did not work on the southern in 40s & 50s due to slow loading in cramped coaches
These were the Southern 4DD units.

They were double-deck EMUs built in 1949 IIRC, and withdrawn in 1972, they were rarely seen around the network as they were only used on Charing Cross/Cannon Street to Gravesend line.
