RE: Stagecoach Merseyside - Gillmoss Depot
There is a report on facebook that 7 Tridents and 2 MAN Enviro300s are to go to SC & NL at Morecambe this month to cover extra the extra PVR needed because of the Greyhound bridge closure



(04/12/2017 15:31)buses7675 Wrote:  Just checked my records, the additional Trident/ALX400s at Gillmoss are as follows:

18354 MX55KPE
18355 MX55KPF
18356 MX55KPG
18364 MX55KPT
18366 MX55KPV
18372 MX55KPY

All from Preston, likely displaced by the new Scania N250UD/Enviro400MMCs. I think these are all officially in reserve but are used on strike days.

The other serviceable (but I think officially reserve Tridents but they go out on strikes days) are as follows:

17491 LX51FML
17839 LX03BYR (dual door this one)
18002 SF53BZJ
18147 PX04DOA
18378 MX55KRK
18385 MX55KSJ


There are also three Enviro400s, 19034 SN56AWA, 19037 SN56AWG & 19039 SN56AWJ.

There are a few other Tridents too including 17272 X272NNO but I think these are long term stored although 17272 did go out in the summer a few times during the Open Golf tournament.

Presumably due to the bridge works mentioned above. Does anyone know how long this work will take? Just wondering whether these re-allocations are loans are should be classed as long-term transfers.

Current planned end of the works is October, though I believe Merseyside aren't expecting them back at all.

I would imagine that Merseyside will be happy to let them go. Especially as the Arriva bus strike is now over and the need for deckers on strike days has ceased.

Are any of these additional deckers now required for St Helens school work?

The company recently tweeted that they had additional routes picked up from Red Kite.
