I believe there are talks ongoing between Network Rail and Abellio/Merseyrail which would see a (small) dedicated Merseyrail rail replacement fleet.

No idea on exact details, but was mooted because it is becoming harder - and more expensive to get vehicles during unexpected disruption.

Not sure on the operator though! Presumably for it to work, Merseyrail would need to have some of the own PSV qualified staff.

I actually think that would be an excellent idea. It's just a shame some/all of the YN51s have already been sold on. They'd be ideal for most replacements, either impromptu or planned.

SWT seems to have their own buses...




No idea how they operate them though...

They are operated by Stagecoach aren't they? Or at least where, something tells me they no longer run buses, I could be wrong though!

The 3 tri axles were sold off to Howards Travel Group but dunno if the other bueses were sold off

Anyone know where these Ex Haytons machines have gone to. Trying to complete my Selwyns/Haytons fleetlist but have these leftover due to lack of information found
