Class 150 'Sprinter' Profile and Models

The British Rail Class 150 Sprinter is a class of diesel multiple-unit passenger trains developed and constructed by BREL York between 1984 and 1987 for use on regional services across the UK. The type is a second-generation design, built to more modern standards and based on BR's Mark 3 body design for longer-distance services. It was developed alongside the lower-cost "Pacers", which were built using bus parts, for use on short-distance services. Two prototype units were built followed by 135 production units in two batches. The type remains in service as of 2021.
