It was 4299. Was on the 89 route when a passenger shouted to the driver that his bus was on fire. Fire engine was passing and it turned out to be an electrical fault towards the rear of the bus

It must have been very minor. Yesterday every WB B7/ALX was in service yesterday except 4225 and that was out Friday on the 45.

4299 has not been on loan aand is also in service

WB

Not sure which number it was then but i know the vehicle was in the work bay inside the garage set to one side and the driver was taken into the managers office to find out what had happnened. Apparently the fire service had to rip the rear seat up and the smoke was very thick and smelt very bad so doubt it would be back in service so fast??
