lean back

[GUEST2008]

Hi

When somebody says: He leaned back in his seat and watched New York disappear as the train rattled on. it means that the guy just sat comfortably in his seat and put his back on the backrest?

I reckon so.

My additional question

disappear or disappearing?

Thanks

@Guest2008, yes, that's right.
@e2e4, both are OK.
