Bus breakdown experiences

[notepanel]

Although 4006 isn't on the 59 ??? Did you mean 4008 as I saw that running down Lichfield Road out of service today?

Probably turned at Wednesfield or accidently had the wrong display (Happens regually)

I'm not too sure to be honest, I wasn't overly paying attention! I have written 4006 down though! It was initially showing the full 59, but by the time it departed at least the following two buses had already left so I imagine it would have been turned short at Wednesfield?  It was showing 59E but I was stood behind the bus.

it was parked there for drivers to take a break on as there was no lighting or power in the canteen

Wrong Thread, not broken down just being used as a temporary canteen.

Is there a thread for buses being used as canteens?  ;)
