Doesn't look like double decking adds much capacity. The floor space taken up on the first floor could just be more seats. The second floor doesn't double the capacity of the first first because there's a hole on the first floor and on the second for the stairwell.

And with only one bend, this would have less capacity than most modern trams. Plus this wouldn't fit under existing wires. It's very cool but not really practical.
