You know - that's just not right - I'd be well p****d off if I bought a new car and I had to have it towed on day 1. A Y-ABA I can understand, but not brand new buses on their first day in service - and reports indicate at least one other failed but made it's own way home.

Its expected with new buses - theres always teething issues! Ive heard at least one of the breakdowns was battery level related, presumably because theyve been sitting around in the yard for some time now, and have only clocked up delivery miles so ther'll probably be a few problems!

2442 (i think) on 464 today, also a 59 plate pulsar on 418s and a new pulsar on 487s.
