The main issue is the seat comfort, but people are overall very
positive about the design.

Thanks for publishing that. I'm glad I wasn't the only one to notice the use
of 'old style' butterfly cocks!

I attended the exhibition at Euston and wrote two responses in their
book, but only one of them appears in the PDF - "Why such a tiny
sticker saying Victoria Line?"
My second comment about the possibility of a tip up seat that stays up
when it's up and stays down when it's down, is not recorded, and I
can't see any equivalent question about the dangers of tip up seats
which spring up when people are trying to sit down on them.
Does anyone else here believe they gave a response which was not
recorded?

What is a butterfly cock, dare I ask?

It's a device to allow someone outside a train to open a couple of doors on
a single car in an emergency.

I put in several comments, most of which were covered in the list, but
one of them seems to have been missed. It was about the scrolling
displays - I find on existing stock they're often not very useful
because of the long scrolling messages, so they aren't often
displaying the name of the next stop and/or terminus. I suggested the
messages need to ensure the stop name is clearly displayed most of the
time, especially as the windows are too small to see outside!
