The new seats have already arrived in Derby so I gave them a quick test on my way over the footbridge. I felt like they were well shaped for me, but the base was fairly solid which was a disappointment. A 222 seat that hasn't yet collapsed feels more comfortable initially.

University can also be handy for avoiding changing at Birmingham New St for changes between the XC Nottingham to Cardiff trains and WMR cross city or Hereford trains. When heading north it gives you a headstart at finding a seat on the XC service compared to changing at New Street.
