Interesting, they don't seem to take the rest of the fleet off the road if it's a diesel bus that catches fire!

I guess it depends on whether there's a suspicion of some kind of inherent problem with the type.  Diesels are well known, so the cause of a fire is likely to be understood, whereas the new technology of an electric vehicle may indicate a hitherto hidden design problem.
