While formulating its long term strategy for this sector of its operations, British Rail planners recognised that there would be considerable costs incurred by undertaking refurbishment programmes necessary for the continued use of these ageing multiple units, particularly due to the necessity of handling and removing hazardous materials such as 684:
between the underframe and the body above by a flexible mounting in contrast to the prototype's integration of these two sections; there was also a reduction in the depth of the underframe for maintenance accessibility. Furthermore, in order to maximum cost savings, the manufacturers made use of road bus-standard electrical equipment, passenger fittings, and general cab layout wherever possible.
662:, which was a consequence of the railbus's direct connection between the underframe and suspension with the body that transmitted impact forces across the body. It was also observed that the inclusion of strengthening members in the mass-produced bus body added significantly to the overall production cost, which eliminated much of the cost advantage that was the primarily goal of the type. 901: 50: 732: 691:. These were designed so that the entire body could be replaced during a mid-life refurbishment/reconstruction, and that the replacement body would not be limited to the exact same dimensions either. The underframe area, in addition to its structural role, accommodated all of the propulsion apparatus along with the majority of electrical gear. 815:, and was different from the 20 British trains having only longitudinal seating for 120 passengers and space for another 140 standing. Furthermore, only one car was powered, with the other being a trailer vehicle. While the trial was conducted, it did not lead to export orders for the type. After the unsuccessful trial in Thailand, the 718:, unlike traditional DMUs. This uncommon arrangement has been attributed with resulting in the Class 141 units possessing a relatively rough ride, especially when traversing jointed track or points. Their combatively poor ride quality has been said to be a major factor in the general unpopularity amongst passengers. 628:

family of DMUs, BR officials recognised that a cheaper unit was desirable for service on the smaller branch lines that would not be unduly impacted by lower performance specs or a high density configuration. As such, work to progress both approaches was undertaken by BR's research department during

The Class 141 shared a very high degree of similarity to the design of the Class 140, a factor that enabled the latter to act as a driving instruction unit and demonstrator for the former. However, these production types also differed in numerous places. One major area of change is the separation

The Class 140 was viewed to be an overall success, and thus BR issued an order for an initial production model, designated Class 141, to British Leyland during 1984 with production commencing thereafter. In subsequent years, follow-on orders would be placed, but these would be for improved

It was decided to develop such a vehicle with a high level of commonality with the widely used 767:; both of these features were later deemed necessary to provide sufficient levels of performance and were applied to all Class 141s. Accordingly, considerable improvements across the whole fleet followed a modification programme performed by 782:
The units were numbered from 141001 to 141020. After modification they became 141101 to 141120, although not in order, since the opportunity was taken to match the final digits of the unit numbers with those of the vehicle numbers.

respectively. Unlike these later siblings, the Class 141 had a noticeably narrower body, having equal width to that of the standard bus; subsequent production models expanded this to maximise internal volume.

During this period, a number of prototypes were constructed to explore different designs and approaches for implementing the railbus concept. One such vehicle was a single two-car unit, designated as the
