At the moment there's enough electric vehicles ready to enter service and displace non-euro 6  vehicles and cover a few additional losses. if something can cover for the meantime it wouldn't be worth bothering l.

I don't think the Electrics will be in service for a while yet.

What even happened does anyone know who started the fire or?

Apparently 4733 had an arson attack yesterday as well

Out today so it couldn't have been too bad.

It hasn't tracked since 10.20am this morning, when it was due to start its first service on the 49.

Another false post, it hasn't been out today.

Because it was taken out of service part way along the route and the ticket machine wasn't taken off the running board bustimes has picked up the start of the running board programmed in.

It's obvious from checking on bustimes it hasn't actually left the garage as you have seen. I wish people would actually not just rubbish without checking freely available information

So had 4733 been involved in a arson attack yes or no?

By the looks of bustimes it shows the vehicle I don't think it has as it was on the Stratford Road in Shirley around 18:48 and coming the other way around 18:54 and arriving at depot around 19:04

Yes it has.

I presume whatever happened to 4733 wasn't as bad as 4614?

Purely going by BusTimes tracking, 'something' happened to 4733 in Shirley around 18:40.

Then around 19:20 at Solihull, must have been when 4614 was hit.

Hopefully there is CCTV footage to catch the culprits in the act, probably the same ones.

More mindless vandalism from brain-dead morons.

My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Another arson attack has been reported this time on 4609 which makes it 3 in less than 24 hours and they have all happened on the 49
