Vehicle No. 55801 from set No. 144001 has been converted into a non-clinical space at Airedale Hospital near Keighley for youngsters on the children’s ward and for those visiting paediatric outpatients. The hospital won the carriage in the Transform a Pacer competition run by the Department for Transport in 2019, and Northern has sponsored the transformation through its customer and community innovation fund. Renamed the ‘Flying Dalesman’, the carriage now includes creative spaces, sensory zones, areas for reading and learning, an indoor tree and a garden courtyard. The driver’s cab has been also been restored so parents and children can sit in the front of the train. NORTHERN
