You cut the rest of that line. The full quote was:

> Caltrain’s new trains also just have the advantage of being new: The trains that are being phased out are nearly 40 years old. They were loud not just because of the diesel engines but because the doors rattled and brakes squealed. The new trains have WiFi, power outlets, better climate control, energy-efficient lighting, and more storage under the seats. (My only complaint, when I tried the train out the other day, was that the seats are now a little less comfortable—though the upholstery is easier to clean.)

They are quieter, have more amenities(in-trip wifi, plugs), have more storage space (which means more leg room), and better climate control (AC/heating/ventilation). IMHO those are all way more important to my comfort than the chairs being a bit stiff when the ride is longer than 30 minutes.
