10 vehicle incident involving buses http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/massive-bus-crash-sutton-coldfield-11292797

4781 was the Scania involved. Can't quite see the Enviro, looks to be 4914 looking at the pictures and the name on the front.

I'd heard the accident diversion over the radio but never realized it was that bad. It's terrible at rush hour on Rectory Road and Coleshill Street, with the bridge works on Riland Road.

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.

How the hell, indeed, lol! I don't know why the Birmingham Mail felt the need to add the video of the crash with 1926 and 4520.

Huh. All I ever got on the Bristol Road was year old toffees from women older than my mother.
