101 DMU question.

When I was at Dereham (Mid Norfolk Railway) yesterday, I overheard a conversation from the driver of their 101 DMU set.

He was saying that if the air pressure dropped below a certain level he could not start the engine from his cab, and had to lay on the platform to start it.

Do they not have electric starters ?
