Which horrible green are you referring to - the green Comeng style seats
used at present or the original VR moulded plastic with green vinyl
'cushions'?
Of course it wasn't as revolting as the attempt to replace the original
comfortable upholstered seats in the Harris carriages with Hitachi design
moulded seats only with light blue plastic instead of the neutral colour
used in the Hitachi set - was that ugly or what, must have been thought of
by an engineer...
