It must have been leaking for ages. When I resumed service in the change bus, I could see the trail of diesel left by 4277 all the way from Town to Castle Vale and back to Aston Uni again

3 breakdowns in 3 days this week, my luck doesn't seem to be in. 4476 packed up on me this afternoon, with some sort of electrical problem. The door button stopped working so had to let people out using the emergency door button, then turned off and isolated the bus, and it wouldn't start again. It started after 5 minutes of turning interior lights and headlights off to not drain the batteries. Then got to the next stop and the exact same thing happened again. Instead it wouldn't restart at all then
