Title: Out of service 150 at BTM
Post by: tramway on April 10, 2008, 10:54:04
Spotted next to platform 1 this morning as we pulled out was a 150 with all access points taped over looking a bit like a crime scene, too far away to spot if it was police tape, anyone know the story behind it?

Possibly this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/gloucestershire/7340912.stm ?

"The train was taken out of service to allow the scene to be examined."
