Northern Pacer Withdrawals - Info?

[TT-ONR-NRN]

Updated to show the three class 142's that are now of lease, these have been highlighted red.

From what I gather, there are now roughly 16 (out of 94) class 142's in service - that is all the TfW units and the handful that Northern has left. There's 23 (of of 25) class 143's in service with both GWR and TfW and finally there's 22 (out of 23) class 144's operating with Northern. Once all the class 142's have been withdrawn from service, the list below will concentrate on both the class 143's and 144's up to the point when the last class 143 and 144 is withdrawn (I'm guessing it'll be 144012 with 144023 being the penultimate and last three car set.) I do envy someone copying the list into wikipedia, its going to take them ages.

I know you said roughly but you do know Transport for Wales have fifteen 142s, right? So sixteen would mean one pacer operated by Northern Trains.

 

[Jamesrob637]

142036, 061 and 011 currently in platform 4 at Newcastle on 5Z43 09.57 Heaton - Gascoigne Wood

Which I missed by an hour as my Middlesbrough bound TPE turned off the ECML just after 10am

 

[Journeyman]

I passed by the Waverley Route Heritage Association site on Wednesday. Both vehicles of 142020 present, but only one vehicle (55560) of 142019 could be seen. Assume it's awaiting delivery somewhere.

 

[fodphil]

Hi
Anybody have and idea of the 142s at Heaton, the current list seems to have some locations missing.
I have counted 11 on the shed after today's GW departure. Plus a 144
Thanks in advance

 

[1D53]

I'll be very surprised if 144008 sees service again. I believe it is currently in 'Warm Storage' with severe corrosion. Same applies to the centre coach from 144021 which is now in 144008.

The outer cars of 008 are sound (as much as a 144 can be!) for corrosion but due a major exam so its warm stored, only the centre car from 021 has corrosion issues.

 

[LancsFus45407]

Hopefully wont be too much longer till all of the 142's will be withdrawn from service as their time should almost be up. How many are presently in service with Northern.

 

[LancsFus45407]

Also has anything been said about which organisations will be getting which class 144's. Platform 1 at Huddersfield Station, Fagley Primary School & Airedale NHS Trust.

Haha I was about to ask if anybody knows what the carriage number of the pacer at Worksop yard is, sorted!

In answer to your question, worksop!

I have kept track of every move so I doubt this list is out of date

[IamTrainsYT]

Haha I was about to ask if anybody knows what the carriage number of the pacer at Worksop yard is, sorted!

In answer to your question, worksop!

 

[simon7929]

There were about 17 parked up at Heaton. Six have left in the last couple of days for Gas Wood. So should be around 11 left. However 2 out of the 11 are kept at York for driver route training

142078 stayed the weekend at Southport so it can’t be that. If they are feeling nice hopefully it will be the 2 merseyrail ones and 090 (I don’t hate 090 I would just like 004 with its bench seats to stay)

 

[fodphil]

Does anybody know what are the 5 sets that visible from a passing train at Kingsbury please.

142078 is nice and warm and like it runs with new turbos. I still believe they should be on romiley all day rather than one peak ie kirkby and southport. And other Wigan to Blackburn one. I hope 142004 stays. Same here 142090 if it has to be.

[warwickshire]

I went past and I could see 5 sets inside the palisade fencing

Kingsbury are still there seen them myself. However I suspect not certain, the ones there are the recent ones that got sent just recently. The latest ones should be listed on a thread somewhere.

 

[IamTrainsYT]

maybe they are keeping 016/022 and letting people go see them as lots of people havent seen them lol
wishful thinking

 

[warwickshire]

there was the same issue last month, the east kent railway have said they are purchasing 142036 and 142017 is "residing" with them

Class 142 always had a certain charm about them, I thought. Not the most glamorous of trains but strangely iconic in a way. Like Gregg's, John Smiths and cobbled streets, they've always been an symbol of the North of England. Useful for local routes, though I remember getting on one from Leeds to Barnsley, which was Lincoln bound...no idea what they were thinking!

Never had a problem with 144s, the seating was comfortable and again they were decent to travel on for local routes. Just a bit ugly.

It's 150s that have always been the scourge of the Northern fleet as far as I'm concerned. Unkempt, uncomfortable tin shacks.

Here is the final hope valley class 142 on Friday

45 and 51 are heading to Gascoigne Wood. Passed Horbury Junction 5 early.

Haha yes, the northern spirit and bench seat ones stay

 

[whg1070]

Are there any diagrams that are regularly operated by the remaining 142s? Apologies if this appears elsewhere (or in another thread), but it seems to me like a continually changing picture.
