Bus Fire (2015)
Here firefighters attend to a bus fire. The fire started in the (rear) engine bay of an electric bus. After the initial fire was extinguished, damping down continued. A recovery truck was sued to lift the rear so firefighters could continue to spray water onto the underside of the engine bay.
All passengers were quickly evacuated from the bus by the quick-thinking driver and nobody was injured.
