Bus breakdown experiences

1806 continued in service an hour or so later so it must been have repaired or fixed or I heard there may have been a medical incident on board It looked like all the Passengers had got off to me. But happy to be wrong

4611 broke down in the middle of Adams Hill and Romsley Road when trying to turn into Adams Hill.

PCSO was in attendance.

X22 which I was on diverted back up Romsley Road -> Field Lane -> Genners Lane -> Jiggins Lane as usual.

Let me guess, you saw E011 parked up in Sparkbrook by Aldi just after 4pm with it's hazard warning lights on?

If so, it wasn't 'broken down', I can see on BusTimes that it was turned short at Camp Hill Island due to late running, and so would have been sat waiting time to start it's outbound journey on-time.

Please don't automatically assume that any bus parked up somewhere with hazards on is 'broken down'.

I can also see that on arriving in Solihull, the bus did go straight back to garage, but even so a bus that can get back to the garage itself has not technically 'broken down'.
