Class 142 'Pacer' 2 car Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) 142064 as operated by Northern Rail at Shildon Station in County Durham (UK) with a Bishop Auckland to Saltburn service train.
Shildon Station is on the route of the world's first steam locomotive railway, the Stockton and Darlington Railway which dates from 1825 although nowadays the railway is either called the Tees Valley Line or Bishop Line which runs from Bishop Auckland to Darlington, Middlesbrough and Saltburn.
This train was completely overwhelmed by the numerous passengers boarding here who had visited Shildon National Railway Museum and the Great Goodbye Mallard 75 event so thank you to Northern Rail for not laying on extra units and trains to and from the museum as promised.
The Class 142 Pacer units with their atrocious noise, vibration, harshness (NVH) and general ambience levels do nothing to enhance the image of the railways in this area in my opinion.
Class 142's have been in service since 1985/7 and are thankfully due for withdrawal by 2020.

English Electric Class 37/4 1,750 hp Co-Co No.37 423 (ex-37 296; D6996) of DRS in their Compass livery with the Network Rail Project Saloon No.97 5025 "Caroline" at Bristol Temple Meads, 7/08. "Caroline" was originally a TRB of a BR (Eastleigh) Class 202 "6L" Hastings Line 6-car Inter City demu converted at Stewarts Lane as the Southern Region General Manager's Saloon and then converted by FM Rail in 2004-5 to the Project Saloon.
Another Drummond T9 class built at Nine Elms this is 30117. Built in July 1899 it was withdrawn on 22nd July 1961 and cut-up at Eastleigh works by 5th August.
Like 30338 in the previous photo it has one of Drummonds famous inside-framed double-bogie 'water cart' tenders that gave it a more powerful look than those class members that had 6-wheel tenders.
The date and location were not given but I think this one is at Eastleigh.
