BR York

BR York (the British Railways carriage and wagon works at York) inherited the engineering tradition of the NER's York Carriage Works. After 1948 York concentrated chiefly on coaching stock and diesel multiple-units rather than locomotives, building large numbers of the BR Mk1 carriages, the Class 101 Metropolitan-Cammell DMUs and the Pacer and Sprinter family of railbuses and DMUs in the 1980s. The works closed in 1995.
