Northern Pacer Railbus at Mills Hill railway station (October 2018)

A look at a Pacer Railbus train back in 2018.

This was a double Northern Pacer Railbus passing through Mills Hill railway station on the border of Middleton and Chadderton in Greater Manchester on the 24th October 2018.

The first Pacer Railbuses were introduced in 1984 and were designed as a short-term measure with a lifespan of twenty years. They were due to be withdrawn from service in 2019 and finally finished up in 2021.
