Saltwell Park cemetery. My wife's a Geordie and a number of her relatives are buried there. They'll be turning in their graves. Quite literally.

Turning short of the outer terminus I expect.

..........Too soon?

I'm sure there's a joke in there about A V hell and adjustments etc, but I'll leave it to Windy.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

Is that some sort of euphemism?

A De Courcey Trident working 360 at weekend impaled itself on fire escape at Jardine Crescent shops Tile Hill. Dunno number, nothing in press.

There appears to be a major incident involving Green bus 117 and a 64 plate car which has had its roof removed by the fire brigade currently blocking the Digbeth Gyratory system at Moat Lane. Buses being diverted around Ladywell Walk and Smallbrook Queensway

I saw the picture before I saw this comment and I thought it was the ALX400 that was the NXWM one, it was the same one 4372 that was involved in a crash with a skip lorry. But when I saw this post I sighed in relief otherwise I would've been saying "4372 had another accident in the city centre whilst working the 3"

Female struck and killed by NXC bus in Willenhall estate Coventry this morning

Today is even more crazier then June the 12th 2014, like 4 bus incidents today.
