More than likely - certainly a hell of a lot more accidents than what gets reported on this forum.

8343 was recently involved in an accident just off Redheugh Bridge - Liam told me it looked quite severe at the time. It has promptly returned to service, though, with front bumper branding missing.

5347 and 5348 have both made it to Hants & Dorset Trim ready for preparation for Brighton & Hove. They were seen parked there earlier today.

Whey 5347 got towed there by Alpha Recovery - https://www.flickr.com/photos/77351420@N04/15873269754/ - so one would assume 5348 did also.

5348 (i presume as the dates dont match for 5347*) has been there for at least 3 days now: https://www.flickr.com/photos/59115230@N06/15861819994/ (it may not be obvious at first but my point can be seen Tongue )

*Obviously this photo has been posted on the thread already - just a few posts back infact! - but here it is again and it can be seen that the bus in the first picture can not be 5347. I'm so going to join the CSI team when im older Smile https://www.flickr.com/photos/77351420@N...Zgm-kLqKuL

Aye, in a secret location,

50 miles north-west of Newcastle, just off the A68.  Wink
5154 broken down in Park Lane on the 9. Won't start back up after the driver switched everything off.

The police are dealing with an incident on the Lime stand / old Silver Arrows stand meaning that the Lime is using the stand which service 73 uses.
police just left park lane

The 9 is causing a blackage, vyking working of the 9 needs to be on the stand to.

5154 doesnt sound healthy
Go North East

Services delayed around Park Lane Interchange due to an incident. Please wait at stands A-C as the main part of the Interchange is closed.

A bit like the former Soviet Union they used to keep rocket launches under wraps eg Yuri Gagarin launch site now known as Baikonour and other events but Top Gear is a canny program one of the volunteers I know lookslike Richard Hammond
