A very wedged 142 056 on the 17:20 Leeds to Southport tonight. Guard threatening to close doors early ! 142020 and 142 084 standing in platform 11a but not sure what if anything they will work.

1300 Leeds to Knottingley 2x142 whilst the one the other way was a 150/1. No numbers as sat in Spoons across the road from Glasshoughton station.
1330 Leeds to Sheffield was a 142 seen from Castleford level Xing. It would appear the Pacer is holding its own around these parts.

I find this thread mildly amusing as I seem to have more chance of getting a 142 now than at any time over the past ten years. Often substituting for peak hour express trains.

3. Pacers at Castleford in 5 minutes this morning. 091 on the 0952 to Sheffield, 8 minutes late.
084 on the 1002 to Leeds and an unidentified on the Huddersfield.
Surprisingly the Northern Belle wasn't a Pacer but had 57 314 and 601 top and tailing on a Newcastle to Chester run.

Seen today at Moorthorpe:

142 071 on 11:48 Leeds to Sheffield.
142 092 on 12:31 Sheffield Leeds.
The 11:31 Sheffield to Leeds had 144 015.
The Heaton Worksop move ran early and took me by surprise. 142 096 was at the rear and I gather from elsewhere on the forum that 142 088 and 142 093 were the others.

Teesside today were .. 142014/20/32/8/78 and 91.
142020/032/038/078 seen by me over 90 minutes or so today at Thornaby. They seem to be in reasonable order - better than 142018 when I rode on it a few days back when staff had to manhandle doors open at each station.
