The Open 2023, Hoylake - gka472l - 11/07/2023 13:48
With 'The Open' 2023 at Hoylake nearly upon us, it's probably worth having a thread just for it.
Stagecoach will be doing the park & ride shuttles as usual however as none of the new Birkenhead/Preston vehicles have appeared yet (I believe that plan was to use those....), I would assume Gillmoss/Rock Ferry vehicles will be used, unless anything is getting loaned.....

I was hoping to go and get pictures if the new ones would appear at some point but I guessing not

Is there any chance of the ex-Peoplesbus deckers getting on this at all? If schools are off they could be useful runners on this work.

I wonder if Aintree/Helms will be assisting as they have done in the past

Happy Als SN12 EHS and SN62 AAV (both ex Metroline Enviro 400s) seen on Hoylake-West Kirby replacements this morning (13/7) during my brief wait between trains.

I've heard today that new '23' plate E400MMC's are expected to be used at 'The Open', the Preston batch (although how many I don't know), plus some others, which are intended for a non-local Stagecoach fleet. No sign of anything at Gillmoss today so where they are currently, I've no idea....first day of the park & ride is Sunday however.
