At least this one doesn't seem too serious, but I'm no expert. Hopefully it hasn't caused any structural damage.

No, mainly windscreen with a bit of damage to the edge of the recess where the windscreen sits.

Good to hear, it seems the driver managed to stop before the barrier went in further then. Annoyingly the path was still littered with glass when I returned, it seems they were happy to remove the bus but leave that all behind!

When they state "Scrap Buses", are they referring to cannibalised vehicles or do they mean the main fleet? It's difficult to tell

Some of these vehicles damaged are E300's, so that could be a clue.

The E300's were scrappers.

The E300's were scrappers.

Are they though? These were still in operation recently
