The East Lancs Pacer

Class 144 144009, carrying a fictional Great Midland Trains livery for a filming job, was in action during the East Lancashire Railway Summer Diesel Spectacular, diesel gala event, on Saturday 3rd July 2021. This is highly likely to be the units final public passenger workings. The former Northern Rail unit is owned by the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMF) and will move to one of their sites for training in the future.

The British Rail Class 144 Pacer diesel multiple units (DMUs) were built at British Rail Engineering Limited's Derby Litchurch Lane Works.
