Definition of "comfy"

"We're all gettin' a deal too soft and dull and comfy. Give me the great waste lands and the wide spaces, with a gun in my fist and somethin' to look for that's worth findin'."

As an industry, the railways need to give passengers comfy seats. OK, in this case you might only be on the train for 20 or 30 minutes, but why should you not have comfort for even the shortest of journeys?
