A Class 143 "Pacer" crosses the Tyne at Newcastle on the 15th September 1986. Why I didn't phot something more exciting than a Pacer from this spot, I can no longer remember, but I wish I had!

 

I knew this car from Amsterdam some years ago, but I missed her already for a while. Here it showed up, early in the morning.

The original colour used to be beige, but in the past she has been painted also black some time.

 

3802 cc 6 cylinder engine.

1510 kg.

Production AMC Pacer: 1975-1980.

A dull morning but worth recording these Pacers before they are scrapped.

As I was standing waiting to catch the train,I get an opportunity to capture this. The colors of the pillar n floor also compliments the color of the train.

I was lucky!

Pacer 142 088 at Winwick 12th March 2011

The Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive followed the lead of West Yorkshire PTE in funding low-cost Pacer units for local services, receiving the first batch of 14 wide-bodied BREL-Leyland Class 142s. Additional 142s were built for Regional Railways, supplemented by Alexander-bodied Class 143s and 144s with Barclay and BREL underframes respectively. This fictional image (based on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway’s preserved Class 144) supposes that GMPTE required additional units, which only BREL-Alexander could supply within the required timescale (19-Feb-23).

Class 142 diesel multiple unit No. 142083 arrives at Narberth station with the 09:09 [1] service from Pembroke Dock to Swansea on Friday 17th February 2012.

 

My younger daughter [2] and I were taking the train home after a family holiday at the nearby Bluestone 'resort', there being not enough room in the car for both of us.

  

Notes:

 

1) An estimated time based on the current timetable, as I didn't note that detail at the time. What I did record, however, was that the train was seventeen minutes late due to a points failure at Tenby.

 

2) Not the lady pictured!

Pacing Montana Rail Link SD70ACE 4406 and 4319 on the afternoon Gas Local.

While I was waiting for farmer McIntosh's Ag Museum to recover from the Trumpandemic (jungle drugs anyone) I kept poking around for new finds like the Longmont Supply Ditch and Francis Street. I furtively sneaked up on this shot of a scene after first sight I found on Google maps. The sheds are nearly empty and I wonder if there is more production other than baled hay. It is mostly a rural and quiet home except for the birthday party they were throwing when I got there. I should have gotten a piece of cake and a brewski before I took off. I learned that this was the original Pace family farm of Pace Street fame. I did a google search and found the following:

 

"Charles W. Pace was a well known rancher and farmer who came to Colorado by covered wagon in 1903. He was one of the founders of the National Western Stock Show in Denver, and helped in starting the Boulder County Fair in Longmont. Mr. Pace was born in Adair County, Iowa, on May 25, 1866. When he was eleven, his family moved to Hopkins, Missouri, where he grew to adulthood. It was here that he married Miss Celia Dixon, in 1887. The couple had four children: Fred L., Frank H., Goldie, and Sylvia. The young family farmed in Iowa and Kansas, before moving to Colorado in 1903. They stopped first at Boulder, but relocated to Longmont later that same year. In Longmont, the Paces became prosperous farmers and ranchers." Longmont Architectural Inventory Form

 

The old sugar mill is visible over the trees. Did Pace grow sugar beets for the sugar beet campaigns? Two ugly days in a row so I just as well hide in the air conditioning and work on projects.

  

Well here is a winter name the location teaser for all those PRAT's out there that love the humble class 142 railbus. For the uninitiated that's the PACER RAILBUS APPRECIATION TRUST members.

The societies mission statement : "To preserve the most crap train to run on the British network for future generations to endure !"

 

The location quiz is just for fun : No hate mail from Pacer lovers please. A subsequent set of four duplicated single images with captions will follow in 48hrs. Feel free to add your location guesses as comments this time round rather than Flickmail. Lets see who gets all four first.......Good Luck !

 

ANSWERS : 11.30 on 04/12/16.

Well done everybody and a "Nodding Donkey" sticker is awarded to Chris and Roger who between then got all four.

Years ago when they were built, I thought this was the ugliest car ever made. Nowadays, the title is held by the Hummer, and I have a fondness for the Pacer that probably isn't really deserved.
