I much prefer the other 156's myself.

Whenever I try to put my head back on a former Arriva 156 I always end up with a sore neck as they have these horrible sticky out bits at the top of the head rests which help remove all support from your neck below.

A perfect example being today I travelled to work on one of the other 156's (you know the ones with the mostly blue + slight greeen interiors).

These have much nicer interiors. They appear to have marginally more legroom and I was even able to relax and drift off slightly before reaching Lime Street whereas tonight I came home on an ex-Arriva 156 and no matter how hard I tried the head rest was just too rigid and uncomfortable for my neck resulting in me having to sit forwards as usual.

Something needs to be done about this maybe they could remove a segment of foam from within the headrest cushion to make them more comfortable?
