mal48 62 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Heard a news item that there was a bus crash outside Ramsey bus station involving two of our new silver buses and one passenger injured by flying glass,.very scant information on MR maybe our northern Manx forum correspondents can fill in the details before it gets swept under the carpet like the other bus incidents.

thesultanofsheight 9,453 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) Is that another one on top of the one they allegedly covered up in Baldrine the other week? Edited March 20, 2012 by thesultanofsheight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nellie 639 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 No way this can be swept under the carpet. At Mercedes-Benz spares prices, they'll need a supplementary vote to get them back on the road! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thebees 2,811 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 It's alright, there's probably someone with a mate in Blackpool that will take them off our hands 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
manxy 1,478 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 It would be interesting to know as to why the buses crashed. Has size got anything to do with it... (I think I might regret that comment) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Max Power 6,756 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 It's bound to happen from time to time. As long as it's not a regular occurrence! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tempus Fugit 1,242 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I was amused at the radio report that they were examining the cctv rather than examining broken windows ! but that's modern technology for you Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't hold your breath...it'll be at least 10am till the bicycle peddling gets enough juice in the battery so he can fire up his kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
monasqueen 1,031 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 If the paint gets damaged badly enough, will they then get painted maroon and cream? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shake me up Judy 5,527 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 The boys down at the depot will have to change their worksong now to 'I've got a (slightly damaged) silver machine....silver machine' It's not quite the way Hawkwind wrote it but I'm sure they'll make it scan with a bit of counterpoint or something.
