Didn't see it myself, but a broken down bus near Camp Hill island caused some traffic chaos earlier on the Stratford Road in Sparkbrook, and on surrounding roads. According to the BBC Birmingham travel page, it was reported as 'cleared' before I left work, however I don't know if it was the same bus, but there was a 37-branded Omnilink parked up at the Main Street stop southbound with it's hazard lights on, and what looked like the driver stopping traffic in both directions to let the other direction flow.

That stretch of road, as narrow as it is with parked cars, is a nightmare at the best of times, so you can imagine the chaos if a bus gets stuck there.

4582 broken down refusing to start on the 126 in Wolverhampton Bus Station this evening meaning the 19:45 working of the 126 did not leave. Passengers had to wait for the 20:05 departure (4576).

I wonder if it was replaced, and by what

Arriva 2288 overheated in Bearwood on the 20 today emptying its radiator all over the floor, and steam coming out of the water filler cap.

4017 broke down in Wolverhampton bus station and still there hours later after i saw it. Probably still there as the Masfield truck can't move it

My favourite bus fails again! Not the most reliable Spectra and then Spectra's aren't the most reliable buses, recipe for disaster

I saw it at about 4, watching the Mansfield guy really struggle.
What route was it on?

[Trident 4609]

I saw it around 16:30-17:20 with the Mansfield Guy struggling to move it. Instead he walked out of the Bus Station and Went Into the Spar Opposite the station on Queen Street

Lol. A bar of chocolate always helps. So does a can of Pepsi Max.
