During the recent sunny weather, Transpora North West have been using an open-top bus on their Beach Bus 26 service to Marton Mere Holiday Village. On 10th April ADL Enviro 400 LK08 DXP was in use on the 26, the bus being new to Metroline of London in 2008 in closed top condition. Service 26 is usually busy in the mornings bringing tourists from the holiday park at Marton Mere into Blackpool, with return trips being mostly empty on the early runs of the day.
