The next DMUs to arrive were the new Class 143 Pacers from 1985. This pair of Class 101s seen passing at Battersby on Friday 20/05/1983 will most likely have been allocated to Darlington depot, which closed in 1984. Graeme Phillips Collection.

23rd August 1988
Vehicle: 51467
Simultaneous arrivals are commonplace at principal rail termini, but such an occurrence was hardly expected at the remote outpost of Battersby. During the early evening of 23rd August 1988, the smartly dressed signal lady is poised to accept the single-line token from the arriving Whitby to Middlesbrough service, formed of Class 101 units 51467 - 53240, whilst arriving right on cue from Middlesbrough is the Whitby service, formed of Class 101 units 51515 - 51217. Rather sadly, the 1902-built NER Type C2b signal box was to close almost one year later, on 20th August 1989, when control was transferred to Nunthorpe signal box. Gordon Edgar.
