Obviously places like Leeds, Manchester and Cardiff are hotspots of Pacer activity, but i'm wondering if there are any places where pacers have been despite not usually being allocated or diagrammed to do so?
For example, did First North Western ever send a 142 on the North Wales coast or down the Llandudno Junction to Blaenau Ffestiniog branch?
I remember hearing a 144 once made it to Skegness, which sounds unlikely given it's usual stomping ground of West and South Yorkshire, but could it be true and are there any more odd examples of Pacers visiting somewhere new?
