Absolutely awful, lets hope it wasn't a copycat incident from the one in London a few weeks ago.

Also lets hope they catch the culprits quickly!!

Are they though? These were still in operation recently

Think he means the withdrawn ones, one of the withdrawn ex-First E300's was one (30934 or 30935). I just hope 30215 wasn't in flames!

30935 is the one fire victim. And 30488 & 30492 were withdrawn early Jan, one of those is the other in the picture.

Such a shame to see a Gemini looking like that :(
Hope they fix her! Poor 4497

Amazed that nobody seems to have been hurt in this.

4863 seen parked up on the 51 earlier with what looked like medics in attendance, hope nobody was seriously hurt.

Could be that someone is medically I'll of course.

Safeguard and Arriva don't get on at the best of times in Guildford, but Safeguard have put a message out this morning saying their number 5 service is delayed 'due to an Arriva bus embeding itself in the back of ours'

Rather toasted Stagecoach Solo 47739 in Surrey, don't think that will be used again!

Appears to have been caused when the car ran in the back of the bus

Rail Replacement bus services can be interesting. There are comments on the page asking whether this was a branch line rather than the main line !
