(17 Feb 2016, 10:39 pm)Michael I'm just glad the Pacers (142's?) will be finally withdrawn... haha
I hate them so much.
(17 Feb 2016, 10:47 pm)S813 FVK Yes, the pacers up here are 142s.
Don't 143s and 144s also fall into the 'pacer' category? (completely irrelevant, i know).
(17 Feb 2016, 10:49 pm)Michael Cheers, honestly i have no idea, i know nothing about trains.
I should though.

(18 Feb 2016, 1:04 am)Bus_User First I heard about the 144's being returned to the leasing company? Have you got a souce for this? As for the 153's, I have heard they might be leaving Northern in the near future but the main idea is for them to be converted back to 155's as the leasing company got no plans to make 153's DDA compliant.
I'll be surprised if 144's are leaving Northern in 2017, there be no new trains until 2018 at least and they are already short on spare stock so I just can't see that happening, be uproar if that is the case.
On the subject of pacers, I must be the only one to like them although I accept they are not up to standard for your everyday passenger. Will kinda miss them when they go.

(17 Feb 2016, 11:06 pm)South Tyne Lad Only the modified 144e Demonstrator normally found round Sheffield is PRM-TSI ( DDA for Trains )
But no more 144s are going to be modified and as such will be returned to the lessor in 2017

(18 Feb 2016, 11:24 am)Kuyoyo No more 144 will be modified for Northern. That doesn't mean they won't be modified for anybody else. Don't forget that we aren't the only ones that have 142s that need replacing.
