I presume the Scarborough service will serve 3 intermediate stops (as per the present service and as per the present Northern Airport service).

No it's not that straight forward.

May 2018:
St Helens Junction will get a call on Liverpool-Newcastle (which will later be extended to Edinburgh)
Newton-le-Willows will get calls on Liverpool-Scarborough and Chester-Leeds
The Liverpool-Blackpool service will make an additional call at Wavertree Technology Park

December 2019:
A Calder Valley service will be extended to Liverpool as a 'Northern Connect' service. That will provide additional calls at some stations - Huyton is currently the only Chat Moss station which has been guaranteed a call.
