A fitter came and tried to fix the bus (they arrived 1600). The bus needed towing back to Deptford, it arrived just after 2100. There's a lot of time and cost involved plus the waiting around for a fitter to come out (they are either on other jobs or the vans are already being used).
GNE have recently taken buses to Arriva at Belmont to move them from the roadside and fix them in the depot yard or in one case, a bus was left at Arriva over the weekend.
On a busy dual-carriageway, but still 6 hours to get it back to the depot.
Bet it wasn't left there by itself either
