A shame that more units didn't get the Northern Spirit livery. Easily the best looking 142s in the land. The 156s carried it for quite a while too!

Absolutely second that. Northern by far the worst of the lot. Dull, unimaginitive, finance committee-led drivel.

Nothing says '1999' like GMPTE grey!

Hi guys, This was covered on a previously-locked thread, but in light of the new article over on Transport Designed - which is your favourite livery ever worn by a Pacer? Has to be Northern Spirit for me. Loved North Western Trains, too, but for some reason it always cheapened the look when...

Small timing change to avoid stand clashes at Chorlton Street, at the request of TfGM.

Evening all. Long time lurker here, first time poster. I can confirm that I too gave Plymouth Taxis a call this evening, purely out of academic interest because I find this whole thing very strange. And guess what? They've heard of Cityfox, because they've had several phone calls this evening...
