Riding the new NJT multilevels every day, I can tell you that although they're clean, and the seats are comfortable, they're nothing special to write home about.
Every car is full of little squeaks and rattles. All the plastic panels -- that the interior is decked out in -- rubs against each other constantly, as you clickety-clack on your merry way. The bumper on each end is always rubbing against the bumper of the next car pressed against it, with an ear-splittering screech, with the vestibule doors in a valiant, but a loosing battle, to keep all the noise out of the car. If you're easily irritated by the sound of screeching chalk on a chalkboard, you will be miserable.
People who are sensitive to motion sickness don't want to sit on the upper level. These bulky cars noticeably sway, even on a straight track. On the lower level, many (but not all) cars have very loud air valves, that keep hissing and clicking, all the time.
But, the cars are clean, the blue accents are pleasant to the eye, the seats are comfortable, and as long as you're not irritating by all the squeaks it's a pleasant ride.
