Just seen 4470 being towed in Stechford but it was heading outbound. I assume to that place not far off the airport ?

First Worcester weren't having a good day today! 30402 has just broken down in Rubery and I was forced aboard NX4949, meanwhile, earlier today Volvo 32066 overheated and shut down in the middle of the M5 roundabout!

30402 has seemingly restarted and has just gone through Selly Oak.

6750 is currently broken on James Watt Queensway just up from the lights heading to Masshouse Lane. It's currently stopped on the inside lane.

There was an ambulance with flashing blue lights parked up behind it when I passed it a short time ago - not sure if the two are in any way related.
