Inside the old coaches looks so sumptuous and comfy. Leather upholsery, lots of padding, lovely
glowing varnished timber, brass fittings etc etc. Mind you, looking back to my early days when
some of these carriages were still in service (would you believe) these seats were never quite as
accommodating as they look and if they didn't clean out the accumulating steam engine soot properly
it could be pretty unpleasant. Still .... I miss it all. Ah nostalgia.
