Firstly I wholly expect the answer to be "no", and having never used a Pacer I don't know what they're like (luckily, probably).

Parry People Movers - class 139 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_139) - operate on the Stourbridge branch. The above is something thrown around by Centro for longer PPMs, with three coaches.
The most important thing about them though is the cost: it would be £2.5m for three trains.
How much would the Pacers have cost if purchased today?
Is this just a daft idea, or would it be a feasible replacement?
