Preservation Information It quickly became known that 142094 had only been moved to the Wensleydale Railway as an interim measure and that its proper home was to be the Embsay & Bolton Abbey Railway, who had been some time without an operational DMU. The set moved by road in May 2021. 142094 did not ienter passenger service, the owners instead wishing to improve the set before use. Deep cleaning and repairs to rotten flooring were therefore progressed throughout 2021 and 2022, at the same time preparing the railway's safety systems to handle the new type of traction following the completion of the repair work. |
