If 142s are generally in good working order then I must be very unlucky.
I've been affected by two cancellations due to a broken down 142 and on two ocassions a 142 has performed what seemed like an emergency stop in the middle of nowhere while a problem with the train has been administered to. And I don't know how many times a 142 I've been on has been delayed because of door's jamming (although the doors jamming has also occured on 156s) A lot of Northern's 142s also have some kind of interior problem from leaking to out of order toilets to broken seats as a result of age rather than vandalism.
