1474 (69), 1679 (82), 4129 (89), an Arriva bus and 586 (82). All buses are turned off and got their hazard lights on, they all are on the bus lane in Wednesfield Road. Presumably, 1474 has broken down and caused a blockage on the bus lane.

Edit 1: Changed 582 to 586. (Thank you Stu.)
Edit 2: Changed NXWM trident (59) to 4129 (89). (Thank you Nathan.)

Sorry to be particular but The trident is 4129 on the 89 not 59 ;) 4129 had also failed 20 minutes earlier on the 89 by New Cross Hospital. There have been a fair few times buses have broken down in this awkward place. Buses are just passing the bus lane down Wednesfield Rd into Wolverhampton.

Surely 582 is a WA bus, so it couldn't have been on the 82?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

I saw this at about 16:30, 1474 must have not long broken down as there were passengers on there. There were just 1474, 1679 and a  Trident there when I saw it.

No it wasn't 582. I can remember the fleet number now but was definetley not 582 (Which is a WA Bus!)

In had just past on 4577 on the 59. 4568 went straight down Wednesfield Road past the bus lane

Aha okay then Nathan, my apologies. 😉 Stu, yes, you are correct, my apologies again, I tried to memorise the fleet number on each bus while my bus (69) was passing them. I mean the 586 on 82! 😊

No need to apologise There will be quite a gap in the 69/82/89 services now. 4129 was already running late due to it breaking down by New Cross not long before
