RE: Arriva North West - Speke Depot
last time i saw a bus battery explode is just sort of smoked for a few seconds and let its contents drip all over the floor-

I was told by another source at the depot that the driver called the bus in because smoke was coming from the back of the cab- driver ran it in, and it was parked up before going alight. I doubt the smoke from a battery explosion could come through the cab floor. I'm not familiar with B7TLs but i assume like most deckers all the relays, fuses and other main electrics are behind the driver in the cupboard so id imagine the smoke came from a fault in there somewhere!

We'll have to wait and see i suppose, and this time we can't even blame it on DAF!
