015 and 094 on 1414 Sheffield to Manchester. Good idea to double up on this busy route. Using platform 7 at Sheffield as will not fit into 2C.

Around the North East today.. 142 012/15/6/33/50/70/92 and 96.

Photo of 142046 operating to Hexham is on Facebook this evening! Ultra rare and perhaps an unpleasant surprise for passengers with those seats!

Is it concerning that these pacers are coming back into service? Only 1 has been fully withdrawn it seems.

Can confirm it was a most unpleasant surprise. The change crew at Newcastle seemed a little shocked also - "Where have you got that thing from?"

In an hour at Swinton, South Yorks, yesterday afternoon every stopping train I saw was a Pacer, mainly 142s but at least two 144s.
However today the one I caught from Bolton upon Dearne to Wakefield, the 0943 , was a 158.
Back to normal for the 1203 return though.
