Merseyrail is offering members of the public the opportunity to step on board a full-size mock-up of one of its new trains that are due to come into service in 2020. The detailed and lifelike replica train is fully interactive, with working doors and an automatic sliding step which will bridge the gap between the train and platform edge, making the network more accessible to all users – including wheelchairs users. Staff will be on hand to talk through the features of the new trains. These features – chosen with the input and guidance of Liverpool city region residents and rail network users – include phone charging points and bike racks. The carriage will be on display at Pacific Road Business Hub in Birkenhead - you can view at Pacific Road Business Hub, Birkenhead, October 1 to 14, Monday to Sunday, 8am to 5.30pm, Tuesday 8am to 7.30pm
