RE: Stagecoach Merseyside - Gillmoss Depot
Presumably the sightings in service at Preston of 24137 24157 and 24172 over the past week indicate that the Enviro400s will stay at Gillmoss until the Arriva strike is over.

This looks like a commercial service , with one bus .

It will be a one bus route yes, not sure on how it is being paid for though.

I'll try and find out what gets sent out on it Monday but I suspect it'll be an Optare Solo.

Looks like Stagecoach is engaging in a bit of community spirit in Vauxhall. They will be certainly popular with the residents.

It was out for tender but was on an hourly timetable and a slightly different route. Possibly commercial with the cutback since the tender but I know it was out.

Route 101 is actually on an every 90 minute timetable.

I know. I am saying it was hourly afaik on the tender. Maybe stagecoach said they will reduce frequency but take it on deminims rather than full supported.

I didn't manage to check numbers on them all (I got some photos though so will go through later) but there are around an additional 5 Tridents at Gillmoss now, all 183xx ones from Preston as noted above.
