For those unaware, Metrobus has temporarily withdrawn all their Wright GB Kite Hydroliners for checks following a "thermal incident" involving 6069.   Vehicles have been loaned from Brighton & Hove, Morebus, Swindon, Bluestar, London General, Chaseside, Go Bus, South East Omnibus and Southern Transit to cover.
