RE: Stagecoach Merseyside - Gillmoss Depot
Mbonwick, when I say cascade I mean to replace the Olympians as I assume these are being replaced with Tridents with the 04 plate ones being likely. As for them meeting Merseytravel spec, there are plenty of former ex-London buses on Merseytravel tenders, such as ex-Arriva London DAF DB250s, ex-Stagecoach London Dennis Tridents (X-52 plate) so I don't think that's an issue. The Dart SLFs look pretty shabby on the whole although freshly repainted examples look nice, they're inferior in every way passenger wise to Arrivas B7TLs and DB300s. The Enviros are hardly any improvement capacity wise either. If not the 82/86, the 20/21 where Stagecoach face no direct competition would benefit deckers greatly. Really though as mentioned if the 471/2 can get deckers there is no reason why any of the main GM routes can't, the capacity boost would be a fantastic benefit to them.
