NX 4260 has been sat on Bull st for about 20 mins, driver and inspectors have been poking around presumably trying to see what's wrong

Also. 4878 and 4884 have been sat at the Aston Uni inbound stop for about half an hour

One of the funnier breakdown sights was of the Centro Exhibition Bus being towed away from Walsall this lunchtime.

4574 parked up on Lichfield Rd (By Albion Pub) with hazards on (or was 20 mins ago). Overheard the driver tell our driver that it was something involving coolant.

Not a breakdown but an unusual occurence. 4252 on 08:04 16A from Scott Arms. We get to Green Lane and a customer drops his money in the vault for a   daysaver........."where's the ticket machine driver" ............there wasn't one! just a black board where it should have been.

Don't wanna doubt your report, but I someone don't believe a bus would be in service without a ticket machine

I presume one was fitted when the bus arrived in City, as the bus is still in service
