Certainly nothing substantial, and more so people grumbling about windows being obscured, and it being marketed with WiFi and power sockets, believe it or not.
I think they are okay, unsure on my views of their performance as I was a bit distracted and we got stuck behind a caravan at one point on my journey. They are a nice place to be inside though, especially with the charging points, WiFi and tables although my only concern with the tables is capacity on some journeys, some of the morning runs leave Chester-le-Street bound for Newcastle with standees.
Despite the addition of numerous tables, capacity per vehicle has increased from 65 seated 19 standees, to 68 seated and 31 standees. I'd suggest the tables are a worthwhile investment, as you're then attracting commuters wanting to work on the move.
