I would like to express my condolences, to the Family & Friends of the Driver at Wigan depot, who sadly died yesterday in a freak accident, when the Bus Doors apparently shut abruptly on him.

Same here, a very sad thing to have happened.

Ive never seen the depot so quiet and so many drivers truly upset! RIP Darren Morley
That is very sad news. Hopefully a full investigation happens to stop it from happening again.
That is awful news, and my condolences go to all his family and friends, as well as colleagues at Stagecoach.
I would think a full investigation would be launched now. This could have happened to anyone on that bus at the time, so passengers lives were at risk as well.
There is to be a minutes silence at 12 midday and stagecoach in wigan have given permission for buses to pull over where it is safe to do so!

Anyone know what Stagecoach's policy is on prams and buggys?
I've just been on an Enviro400 which already had 2 buggys on when I boarded. The driver then let a further 3 buggys on which completely blocked the isle and the stairs of the bus.
When I was getting off I had to literally climb over the front seat to get off and the driver was looking at me like I'd done something wrong.
