Is it possible to walk around the perimeter or are there fences in the way? Has it changed at all for access since Stagecoach took over? What are the chances of getting permission from the Garage Manager to go into the yard / garage to write numbers down by just turning up in a hi-viz vest?

I know some enthusiasts who contacted the depot and organised a simple visit to take some photos on a Sunday so contacting them is probably the best bet. It has however also been known for staff to let people in for a look on Sunday simply by turning up and asking, however it depends whats happening and who is or isnt there!

You can chance turning up on a Sunday when its quiet with a high vis and asking, however contacting them in advance is probably the best bet.

My brother has succeeded on multiple occasions by turning up and asking, and also by writing in advance at both Gillmoss and Birkenhead garages.

HTH.
