Old carpeting (brown/black, chessboard-style) was still there.

Large, deep, comfy seats, which actually bear some resemblance with those fitted in 1st-class saloons of French USI cars...

When reclined to the fullest, seats even look pretty much like a sleeperette :-)

Sadly, upholstery is so soft that those having a vulnerable would better travel Turista-class...
