Just read on BBC News text page of an incident yesterday in Belfast where someone was stuck under a bus in the City.
Don't judge me until you've walked in my size ten shoes.

Both involving OmniCitys, not as serious as this one
I think it's 4781, rode that earlier on the 16 yesterday in the day. Shame it's an Omnicity.

Shame as the omnilinks are the best deckers IMO (excluding geminis)

Reports of an RTA on Hamstead Road involving a city bound 16 and a car, between the Tesco and garage, the road is currently closed with police taking photographs of the scene so it looks to be fairly serious. Thoughts to all involved.

The accident sadly involved a fatality in the car.

Omnicitys are powerful. Better than a MK1 E400. But the Gemini's will always be my favourites.

Now on Birmingham Mail. Saying Great Barr, it's actually Hamstead!

Today WL 6733 on the 51 (Not a typo!) was stopped near Perry Avenue B'ham bound. Empty and on hazzards with a male sitting on grass with facial injuries. No idea how they were sustained.

No. 4697 and 4777 - 4781 are all Omnicity's.

Other way round - the Omnicity can be single or double deck. 4777-81 are Omnicitys (or is the plural Omnicities?)
