Nick, it was a very sad day.
you need to be on instagram, like all the cool kids - there was a whole write up on it.
it was a blue and white 21 window with white walls - its my understanding that the gentleman went to sleep behind the wheel on his way home.
the bus flipped over on its top and caught fire - he had some burns on his legs, but is ok.

Yeah, that's old news. Try and keep up old man.
Happened after Farmington. Not sure if they were at CTS?

| He is ok. Spent a few days in the hospital with some burns, but got lucky considering. Fortunately Victor's son was following and was able to pull him out of the bus when he was trapped |

I'm so sorry to hear about this bus accident. If it's the bus I think it was, it was a recently restored turkis bus that the owner had purchased within the last year or so.
Anybody get a photo of the bus at Farmington? Kathy's show photos didn't include the bus I'm thinking of.
Edit: The bus I was thinking of is a turkis standard, not the deluxe which was unfortunately lost in this accident.
