Bus breakdown experiences

[Roy]

WN 4581 broken down in Brierley Hill High Street at 0950 hrs this morning - being attended to by an engineer.  The guess is that it was on the 0718 hrs Wall Heath to Merry Hill service when it broke down as 4009 was on that running board at 1030 hrs.

President in Bearwood with the bonnet up at the Kings Head stop (11A side) 10:35 this morning

4753 broke down at around 07:20AM in Moseley, there was an Enviro behind it stopping behind it everytime when 4753 was stopping, it was empty. I was guessing that 4753 was having trouble in a previous location and probably is a reason why it was late. The driver for the other Enviro was pushing his foot down on the accelerator really hard, probably because the bus was late.

Recovery waggon up Merry Hill, nothing on the back but looks like he got his eye on an Igo Primo

Yeah it's the primo he's after, it was there trying to hook up at 2010hrs

1762 was been lifted by a tow truck at the 10A terminus on the A5 around 12.30 this afternoon

4155 has broken down in Ward End, blocking the road outbound somewhat, just after the park.

4155 with the bonnet up on high street causing a bit of a back up with the pershore rd buses

Saw 1436 parked in Darlaston bus station with no lights on (at 15:58). The rear blinds displayed 38. I'm assuming it has broken down?

NX 4714 was towed away from Moor Street at 1:40 this afternoon

[Trident 4609]

4817 was parked up with its hazards on this afternoon on Halesowen Rd (Opposite the new Fire Station) with 4348 behind as the replacement vehicle.


Also 4015 went back to Park Lane this morning on the back of a Mansfield Truck

4817 was parked up by Old Hill Fire Station this afternoon with 4348 parked up behind. Engineer was aboard 4817 and driver had gone to 4348 behind so i presume 4817 was defective

PN garage being prepared....

PN garage being prepared....  Did anyone not tell them the fire station has moved around the corner though....  ;D

Depends on if it's outside the new one though
