Thanks - makes sense. They usually do swap out the seating when that wears out (some of the new blue-patterned seat pads are very square and firm; they even make that rubbery squeek

) but the cars with the green seating seemed to have had complementary paneling, trim, and carpeting too so they likely had fully refurbished interiors.
I've been more aware of the paint on the coaches this past week... quite a few with the old colours are very faded and due for a repainting.
