Could've been a WA one on the 4H?

No Walsall Mark 2 on the 4 yesterday and 1771 the only Mark 1 didn't break down. perhaps it was someone just checking the tap that allows the saloon heating works was in the correct position, and someone was just guessing it had broken down.

Just about to get on 6892 and then the driver told everyone the bus had broken down.

Something about the brakes apparently.
