Eurovision makeover for region's trains and buses

The Liverpool City Region's trains and buses are getting a striking new look in time for Eurovision.

With just a few weeks to go until the event lands in Liverpool, Metro Mayor Steve Rotheram has unveiled the makeover for some vehicles on the city region's public transport network to time with the contest. One of the region’s new publicly owned £500m trains has also been wrapped in Eurovision livery and will appear on the Merseyrail network from today.

New zero-emission hydrogen buses will also start appearing from today (Monday 24 April) ­draped in Eurovision’s colours. They will initially be used for driver training before entering passenger service in the coming days on the 10A route between St Helens and Liverpool.
