Apparently @Tony or someone may be able to confirm but apparently the People who torched 1842 had tried to set fire to a bus eairler but the fire was put out as it was small, may not have been NX but I think someone said it was the 79

Was just wondering as it was "wait for the investigation" when the E200MMC caught fire!

Didn't want anyone jumping to any conclusions.

Is there any update on how 2220 even managed to catch fire?

(Besides the people claiming it was a coolant leak)

That confirms it was Criminal intention, So Arson as suspected or possibly something else must be the first single to be torched in an Arson Attack it is usually Double Deckers that suffer Arson Attacks

Probably a combination of all.

Apparently Buses being covered in Blood/Smashed up by Shrewsbury fans by B&M aka Priory Queensway in the City. A lot of services 94/95 X12, X13 and a few others delayed or diverted. Just seen it not sure how true it is

A gentleman tried to get into the cab to either get to the driver or to try and steal money, cut himself in the process - that's why there was a bus "covered" in blood.
All of the buses that were parked up were because of drivers being RTA due to the bad traffic in the city. One of the worst Saturdays I've seen in a while for drivers being RTA'd.
Your new favourite 61/63 late night driver 😂

I was wondering how the Shrewsbury fans would've found themselves over there...
