Not a breakdown but a large amount of steam was seen coming from under one De Courceys Electric buses on Coventry Park & Ride service this morning!

What time because if it was broken down at 1730ish 4453 had already been out for the prior 2 hours?

4453 is the one in heritage livery, isn't it?

I have been going in and out of the city centre all day, cannot remember what time it was.

Last saturday 4406 broke down whilst I was on it on the 11! It only made it to Earlsdon before the driver pulled over at the bus stop and said we can't go any further as there is a problem with the handbrake system! Then on monday I saw 4413 being towed by mansfield whilst whilst presumably on the 11, I passed 4413 on 4691 on the 11 at the university of warwick. 4413 was replaced by a merc. Then I heard about 2157 being towed by mansfield on friday! Quite a few break downs at cv this week!

Passed I think it was 1945 on 37 parked up with hazards on at the St Johns Road stop on Warwick Road in Greet this morning, most of the waiting passengers were loading onto the Omnilink which had just overtaken us, while we sailed on by.

Ironic really as it would have been 1945 I just missed when I got to the stop in Acocks Green this morning!  ;D
