The LNER Azumas are very bad trains and the seats are so uncomfortable

[@Pulsarnix]

They're not as bad as the GWR ones, but not as good as an IC225

[@chaoticmoron-zl6nv]

The emu sets are absolutely horrendous the seats have a hollow Matt cover no actual cushioning

[@chaoticmoron-zl6nv]

Just to clear up what I mean the lnwr sets are what I am referring to

[@Pulsarnix]

[@chaoticmoron-zl6nv]
