Suffered some damage but not as bad as the Arriva vehicle. 19223 and looks like 12109 also some damage as well. |

I got there around 10:05 - 10:10 in time to see the two vehicles towed, looks like the Arriva pulsar (2936) was traveling in the opposite lane. After this happened I took a trip down to East Didsbury, on the way back I noticed 17650 (heading towards East Didsbury) with clouds of smoke coming out of the back. I don't know if it burnt out or not. |

Blimey, it looks like the new buses have arrived just in time. From what I'm hearing, it seems 4 Stagecoach buses including 2 Magic buses were damaged in the accident on Portland Street this morning. Now it seems 17650 is being read the last rites as well. It is a little unfortunate for the depots due to receive the cascades though. |

Can somebody please confirm, just which buses were involved in the accident this morning on Portland Street. As different reports are saying different things. |

Minor damage - 12109 19223 and Magic 17661 And of course, 18288 is the majorly damaged vehicle, no doubt the end of the road for that one Your roving North East reporter, bring you the latest news from Arriva North East, Stagcoach North East and Go North East.

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
I just saw Arriva 2936 and MB 18288 but from what understand the Arriva bus struck another bus, and caused a pileup causing damage to a total of 5 buses. |
