Yes it was 8249 at Biddick in Washington. I saw this as I was on my way to the Galleries at the time and the bus I was on for diverted round the Biddick ring road. The damage was contained to the rear of the bus but it was enough to see it scrapped shortly afterwards.
Other GNE bus fires I remember are: -
4808 - Complete burn out after engine fault I think?
4895 - this one had two fires and was scrapped after the second
4910 - which was repaired and returned to service afterwards
