I believe 4017 was operating the 59 yesterday not the 82 SMK.
I was referring to Tuesday
We'll get rid of your bus to Wolves and replace it with one to Walsall instead.......... Oh the joy of a Network Review. -_-

Yes saw that as well, again,

Driver could have made a slightly better effort to get the bus slightly closer to the kerb, but then if it had just cut out without any warning then fair enough

dgss1, is that your Flickr? The photo of 4823 you just uploaded is being driven by someone I know.

Not on my bus but on the bus before this was. I was getting off 4289 on the 7 route to find another 42** ALX B7TL with the hazzards on infront. The driver of that bus approched ours and simply shouted I've ran out of fuel.

4041 causing chaos at Stockland Green at 4pm on 11A with Mansfield trying to hook it up and blocking the traffic lights in the process. The traffic was almost back to Six Ways, and ironically contained at least 4 other 11A's.
