Another one for Southport, that is quite a few in quite a short space of time. Hope the driver is ok.

A friend of mine said he was told that the driver was taken away in an ambulance from London Street, but I cannot confirm that. Hope all ok.

It looks like the battery flap took the majority of the damage, probably knocked the batteries out, hence it getting towed. I wonder how all the damage to the emergency door area happened. Anyway looks easily fixable.

If you look closely at the photo of the car involved, you can see that it has n/s/r damage as well. I'd imagine that it bounced off the battery flap of the bus and the collided with it again, this time around the emergency door.

What do Southport usually place on the Southport Flower Shuttle services , also during that event what is the arrangements for the Park and Ride services that usually operate from the parking ride opposite the showground.

The last few years have seen Pulsars on the Flower Show services, which comprise the 27 (Southport railway station to the Showground) and the unnumbered Park & Ride service. Southport normally receives a few buses from elsewhere to cover its main routes during this period.
A few years ago, the 4012-4020 batch of DB250s made their service début with ANW on the Flower Show services before passing to Manchester.
