Looking at that pic, I wouldn't be surprised if it is written off, but stranger things have happened and the angle of the pic may not be a good one. Thoughts are with everyone and their families involved.

Thanks!

That bus is definitely a write off. It is demolished!

Must have happened at some speed for a bus to lose a fight with a VW Golf!

were it happend buses normally go about 50MPH,The Golf was ment to be going about 70-80 MPH

I Would of thought a front end rebuild might of been possible with it being a new bus

What a terrible accident, thoughts are with the family & friends of those involved.

Doesn't matter if it's brand new though, the front end of the bus is basically gone so there'll be severe chassis damage underneath. 3146 at Chester was brand new but written off on it's first day in service after a nasty RTA.

So has 3146 gone for good then? I never really read about this but I thought it went away for repairs.

Read it on a comment of Flickr that it got written off after a bump, no confirmation as of yet but we've not heard anything of it turning up at St Helens so we can only assume the worst!
