context_page_description: The Class 170 Turbostar is a British diesel multiple-unit passenger train built by Bombardier Transportation at its Derby Litchurch Lane Works. Introduced after privatisation, these trains have operated regional as well as long-distance services, and to a lesser extent suburban services. 139 units were built, but some were later converted to Class 168 or Class 171 units.
context_section_description: Arriva Rail North began operating the Class 170 in 2018, with a total of sixteen units due from Abellio ScotRail by the end of the year. All 16 units had transferred to Northern by January 2019, and can now be seen operating services between Sheffield And Scarborough via Hull and have diagrams around the Harrogate Loop as well as a single Hull to Halifax via Leeds diagram. The units are maintained at Neville Hill and Hull Botanical Gardens as well as light maintenance at Sheffield and Holbeck depot.
  On 1 March 2020, these units transferred to new operator Northern Trains.
