Hope to dear God they are getting replaced soon.
The last one I caught broke down - was already limping by the time it reached Durham, then trundled down the A167 before being swapped out at Chester le Street.
I hate having to take a window seat upstairs, when it's full. The curve between the wall and floor gives me nowhere to put my feet flat and I end up limping by the time I get off (I have joint problems, so rate comfort pretty highly!)
