Pacer was the operational name of the British Rail Classes 140, 141, 142, 143 and 144 diesel multiple unit railbuses, built between 1980 and 1987. They were inexpensively developed using a passenger body based on the Leyland National bus on top of a chassis based on the HSFV1 research vehicle. The railbuses were intended as a short-term solution to a shortage of rolling stock, with a lifespan of no more than 20 years. As modernised replacements were lacking, the Pacer fleet remained in service on some lines until 2021 – 37 years after their introduction in 1984.

  • Als Pacer bezeichnet man die Dieseltriebwagen der TOPS-Klassen 140, 141, 142 und 143/144 von British Rail, die zwischen 1980 und 1987 in Dienst gestellt wurden. Ursprünglich waren sie als kurzfristige Maßnahme zur Behebung eines Mangels an Rollmaterial mit einer Lebensdauer von höchstens 20 Jahren gedacht. Es handelt sich zumeist um Doppeltriebwagen, von der Baureihe 143 existieren auch dreiteilige Einheiten. 2015 waren von 165 gebauten Zügen (mit 340 Wagen) noch 140 im Regelbetrieb, sieben waren bereits verschrottet worden.
