A trentbarton driver had to evacuate a bus which caught fire on a busy Nottinghamshire road. Passengers on the threes service - said to have included two young children - were moved off the bus before the fire took hold.
Flames and thick plumes of smoke billowed from the bus which was left burnt out by the roadside. A trentbarton spokesman said: “One of our threes buses unfortunately caught fire.
"A smell of smoke was reported, and our driver safely moved all the customers off the bus and away to a safe distance before the fire became established. The cause of the fire will be investigated and we apologise to the customers whose journeys were interrupted.”
