Class 142
Welcome to scot-rail.co.uk, Scotland's online railway community. The group is for any rail enthusiast interested in the railways and trains of Scotland. It not only consists of the wiki that you're reading now, but a busy online forum and mailing list, which was accessible to registered users. From April 2024 the forum has closed, with a replacement started on Groups.io.

Class 142 'Pacer' units were visiting Glasgow Works for overhaul from June 2005 to May 2009.
Until 2014, Class 142 units occasionally worked early morning Carlisle - Dumfries trains in lieu of Northern Rail class 156s.
The Pacer units, classes 142, 143 and 144, are restricted in the routes they are permitted to operate on.
The table is out-of-date, class 142s visiting Glasgow Works started running via Beattock in the Summer of 2008.
