Bus breakdown experiences

4891 and 4892 failed today on 8.
4892 standing Trinity Street making funny hissing sound!

4892 has been acting strange for weeks now. I was on him the other week he was hissing then and I said to my friend that he will break down soon as he sounded like 4839 who is possibly being scrapped now due to not being able to be used!

I highly doubt it will be scrapped

Diamond Royale Centro (in black) broke down on the 56 this afternoon in the bus lane just after Perry Barr island inbound. Was there from around half 5 till half 7, (I had done one complete loop on the 33). Second time passing, a Rotala Transit was in attendance

4001 currently being attended to by a Mansfield tow truck on Wednesfield Road heading out of Wolverhampton. It had previously been on a 59 all day board.

Forgot to post yesterday 1 Bus had a Oil and Water Leak in Chelmsley Wood not sure which vehicle type it was as I overheard it on the Inspectors Walkie Talkie.

1865 broke down on the 46, under the overpass while turning right from Birchfield Road to Heathfield Road, in the special lane. The driver was directing traffic around it

4578 was on the back of a mansfield truck yet again en route to Park Lane late this afternoon

4220 broke down on Tuesday at Coventry train station whilst working service 12. Engine flap up and an awful lot of steam coming from the engine. The driver started it and lots of water and coolant came from the engine like a water fall! Every time it was started an awful lot of steam came out of the back!

1678(?) broke down in Leamington last week my friend who was driving it said the gearbox blew and the bus wouldn't move. It had to be towed and has not been seen since!

Cant tell whether or not 4111 has actually broken down but its been parked up at kings heath park for at least five minutes and half the passengers have just got on 4077...

My stalker Omnilink 7022 was parked up between Solihull Hospital and Solihull Town Centre (coming into Solihull) I assume it broke down as it was there for at least half an hour (10:45-11:15) to be exact when I seen it.

4027 broke down outside Kings Heath Park on the 11A at 08:00 this morning; had the back bonnet up so knowing Presidents probably overheated  ;)
