142094 on Danbys today.
If I have a day with nothing better to do I might find out. From my nearest station, Hartlepool, a Sunday might be best, as there are several direct trains. But doing both legs in daylight might be tricky this time of year, unless I stay on the train at Whitby and come straight back.What's a Pacer like to ride on to Whitby?
I've only been as far as Danby on one.
Not very good, Grosmont corner kills most of them they struggle to get around it screeching and slipping! I saw one leaving one Sunday afternoon it looked like it was about to come of rails. Very bouncy between Danby and lealholm. Screeching around all the corners especially Ruswarp to Whitby under the viaduct! The line is not suited for them what so ever!What's a Pacer like to ride on to Whitby?

Where is 142001 likely to be on the Network? And what is all the lines they operate?
Highly unlikely to be in the North East. Never seen it up here in 28 years of working on the railway. However there have been reported sightings of it in the area on a couple of occasions.
I rode on 142001 this morning. It formed half of the 4 coach departure at 0921 from Blackpool North to Manchester Piccadilly.Where is 142001 likely to be on the Network? And what is all the lines they operate?
142089 on 2N04 this morning.
Can you be a little clear, please, as not everybody knows every Train number of the top of their heads. There are 2 x 2N04s on the system that could possible be 142 worked.
